2022 Outstanding Peace SUPPORT

Dominicus Rohde created and was President of the Schengen Peace Foundation and the World Peace Forum to educate and connect peace builders for generations to come. Dominicus’s profound qualities of joyfulness, vision and networking created a springboard for many projects around the globe. His indomitable spirit enabled him to lead from the front. Sadly he passed away in early 2022.

The Schengen Peace Foundation was initiated in 2005 as a not-for-profit charity approved by his Royal Highness Henri the Grand Duke of Luxembourg on 19^th Oct 2007. The three initiatives of the Schengen Peace Foundation are the World Peace Forum, Youth World Peace Forum and the Luxembourg Peace Prize. World Peace Forum connects peacemakers and gathers scholars, peace activists, executives, journalists, students, religious leaders and politicians, as well as any citizen having an interest in participating. Forums have been held in Luxembourg, Egypt, Romania, Brazil, Canada, Jordan, and Columbia. Youth World Peace Forum works to grow peacemakers and promote the skills and habits of peaceful resolution with the exuberance of creativity. The Luxembourg Peace Prize honors all those outstanding in the field of peace. The many categories of the Luxembourg Peace Prize and their celebration amplify the aims and goals of the World Peace Forum. https://schengenpeacefoundation.org/

I Know that Peace is Possible

I am convinced, I know that peace is possible. It is a mathematical question and a question of time until we reach the “critical mass” to bring the “new-paradigm-barrel” to overflow.

Crime is everywhere and it is well organized. The economy of war has broad shoulders. Yet an economy of peace will create so many more opportunities and bring about prosperity to all people. The day we get our act together and replace the old system by a structure of “organized peace,”we can open unheard-of, but long-sought-after new realities.
