On April6, speak your peace

#WhiteCard

On April 6, make a gesture for peace.

peace

In 2024, as the world faces unprecedented geopolitical instability, the global context underscores the urgent need for a culture of peace. In response, Champions for Peace, a collective of 110 top athletes advocating peace through sport, are amplifying their voices and values, through the #WhiteCard campaign, to promote more peaceful and inclusive societies.

Around the International Day of Sport for Development and Peace (IDSDP), Peace and Sport organizes a consultation with Champions for Peace and a thematic event co-organized with UNESCO. Both initiatives aim to explore the role of athletes as peacebuilding advocates, while examining their expectations and the challenges they face in promoting inclusive and peaceful societies.

Amplify the movement and join the campaign.
