MasterPeace is a global grassroots movement, active in over 40 countries worldwide, that inspires everyone to use their talent and energy for peace building and togetherness. Through music, sports, arts, dialogue and creating perspectives, MasterPeace will help lead the way to a more sustainable world with less conflict.
With our 10 years of experience, we have met many dedicated young leaders who have incredible passion and drive towards building peace among their communities. Together, we have realized more than 1000 projects worldwide with real, deep-rooted social impact. We invite you to have a brief look at our stories here.
In MasterPeace, we believe in ‘values’ and in ‘creating value’. That’s why MasterPeace is funded by value-driven partners such as companies and family funds. Together, we create campaigns, concepts and funding that enable all our Clubs to grow their local action and make their impact truly sustainable.
Our VISION
We believe that the world has 7 billion talents rather than 7 billion issues.
Therefore, we use the SOFT POWER of music, art, sports and play to mobilize and inspire young people.
We believe that there is more that we have in common than what separates us.
Therefore, we organize DIALOGUE within and between communities and stakeholders.
We believe that the lack of perspective triggers polarization, extremism and conflict.
Therefore, we create PERSPECTIVE through capacity-building and leadership training for young people.
Our MISSION
Mobilize, inspire and connect talents for a sustainable future with less conflict.
Our CORE VALUES
Positivity, impartiality, co-creation and “walk the talk”
The MasterPeace peace movement is run by local well-established NGOs/Social Enterprises in 40+ countries, who are licensed to operate as a ‘MasterPeace Club’ in their locality. They are facilitated by a highly motivated core team based in Utrecht, the Netherlands.
We offer a unique platform to a large community of changemakers, social entrepreneurs, volunteers, bloggers, journalists, musicians, entrepreneurs and active citizens to connect and support each other with taking action.
We monitor and evaluate the projects of our MasterPeace Clubs twice a year. In 2020, we carried out 350 projects in 43 countries. Our joint learning capacity is THE ‘driver’ for our yearly growth in quantity and quality, based on a unique model of a low-cost, bottom-up organization.
MasterPeace believes in creating networks with networks. Creating peace. Together! We can contribute with knowledge, tools, network, trainings, partners etc.
We cannot tackle the challenges on our own and together we can achieve more sustainable impact.
