IPYG: What is this group?
Let's learn about it!! :)
If you are interested in Peace or NGO groups, you
might heard of IPYG. Someone got suspicious of it because it is a new organization.
What is IPYG and how was started?
IPYG (International Peace Youth Group) is a youth organization working for world
peace and uniting all international youth. It’s formed from some groups of
youth coming together with same idea of peace. They thought people should be
able to understand across cultures, languages, borders and nationalities. It
began with one of Korea’s largest volunteer group called MIYC and many groups
had joined and became IPYG as now.
Why does it want the youth to be united?
The youth are so powerful and energetic so they can
do anything when they gather and make decisions together. Let’s assume that
they all refuse to fight against one another. What would happen? Unless they
want war all together, the war will be end. That’s why this group believe young
people are so important to finish war.
What does it do?
It has made a partnership more than 130 different
groups from 80 countries around the world. And it has meetings sharing ideas,
and it holds Peace Walk in many places here and there to show the world that we
love peace and need no more war.
