Europe

We honour Annie Imbens Fransen and welcome her to the URI Celestial CC 

Together Creating Heaven on Earth by Cultivating Peace, Justice, and Healing - URI Europe Assembly, Lienz, Austria.

On the 25th and 30th of October 2023, young members of the URI Network gathered for the monthly URI Youth Connection Cafe to share their perspectives and experiences on the topic of interrupting harm and hate speech in an online context.

URI organized a community call under “How to Have Difficult Conversations“ to mark the International Day of Peace.

Bridges Cooperation Circle in Europe marked the International Day of Peace with special training offered to young people. The main focus of the training was on the holocaust. 

For International Youth Day this year, under the theme of #GreenSkills, we ask young people across the URI network “What do we need to do to ensure young people have the skills they need to face the challenges of climate change?” Watch the videos to see their responses! 

Peace education can be one of the initiators of changes in society, and changes in society are necessary for a society to progress. Youth for Peace Cooperation Circle organized a workshop on peace education. 

Over 340 CCs work in peacebuilding and conflict transformation, including in addressing the dangers of hate speech. 

Bridge building networks in Europe are bringing young people together to tackle loneliness and promote diversity
