There is nothing that holds more power than peace. Encouraging people to stand up for peace,

here and abroad, will make a difference. The International Day of Peace was established in 1981

by resolution 36/67 of the United Nations General Assembly. In 2001, the United Nations

unanimously established September 21 as an annual day of non-violence and cease-fire.

As a language that needs no translation, music is the perfect way to communicate peace.

That’s why we’re so excited to bring IDP celebrations to Winnipeg, now an annual event!
