Bandung Peace Week 2025: From Bandung to the World, Reviving a Spirit of Dialogue and Solidarity

Every story shared in all the sessions of the Bandung Peace Week 2025 activities described the same common thread: that true change begins from a heart willing to learn.

From there, a new energy was born to continue igniting the spirit of peace in their respective environments.
