We are working with the most prestigious Public Relations Firms, including social networking, traditional and digital marketing/advertising for major corporations and events.

Our motto: All we are is what we are with each other.

* UN INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PEACE – The International Day of Peace (“Peace Day”) is observed around the world each year on 21 September. Established in 1981 by unanimous United Nations resolution 36/37, the General Assembly has declared this as a day devoted to “commemorating and strengthening the ideals of peace both within and among all nations and peoples.” www.Un.org/peaceday
**PEACE SIGN – In the 1950s the “peace sign”, as it is known today (also known as “peace and love”), was designed by Gerald Holtom as the logo for the British Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND),[1] a group at the forefront of the peace movement in the UK, and adopted by anti-war and counterculture activists in the US and elsewhere. The symbol is a super-imposition of the semaphore signals for the letters “N” and “D”, taken to stand for “nuclear disarmament”,[2] while simultaneously acting as a reference to Goya’s The Third of May 1808 (1814) (aka “Peasant Before the Firing Squad”).[3]
*** HUMAN SECURITY – The United Nations Development Programme’s 1994 Human Development Report is considered a milestone publication in the field of human security, with its argument that ensuring “freedom from want” and “freedom from fear” for all persons is the best path to tackle the problem of global insecurity
