Purpose of the summit
Cultivate human resources who will play an active role in the international community
in order to achieve world peace
This summit contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which is an action plan for humans, and the planet to ensure our ongoing prosperity, promoting by the UN.
The current state of peace learning gives us the opportunity to learn the history of war, but we do not have the opportunity to learn how to create peace. At this summit, you will have the opportunity to learn and think about peace with multinational children during the important teens’ times of physical and mental development.
Through this summit, children’s interest in international cooperation can be increased and the ability to play an active role in the realization of world peace in the international community can be developed.
We will distribute children’s video messages on You Tube channel, etc., and in the future, we will make this summit a summit that 100 million children in 100 countries will solve global problems.
We aim to grow this summit into a world-class “festival of wisdom” that stands side by side with the Olympics (sports festival) and Expo (business festival).
