PeaceJam at the UN

On September 19th, the United Nations hosted members of the global community to celebrate the 12th Annual International Day of Peace. The event welcomed many celebrity messengers of peace, including Elie Wiesel, Jane Goodall and Midori Goto. It also included a display of flags of the 192 nations of the UN all held by children.

Also in attendance was PeaceJam's very own Rudy Bailles! Rudy has been a part of PeaceJam for years and was the MC at Greater Texas PeaceJam's 2008 Youth Conference, as well as the recent Global Call to Action International Conference in LA. Rudy acted as the youth moderator at the UN celebration.

We would like to congratulate Rudy, and PeaceJam for their presence at this momentous event for World Peace.
