October Newsletter Universal Peace Federation is an NGO in General Consultative Status with the UN ECOSOC. Together with our global network of ambassadors for peace we are working towards building a more peaceful world. Universal Peace Federation Honors the United Nations and Its Legacy of Peace This week, as we observe UN Disarmament Week and the 80th Anniversary of the United Nations, we reflect on eight decades of commitment to global dialogue, cooperation, and security. The Universal Peace Federation (UPF) reaffirms its support for the UN’s vision for a world united through service, moral leadership, and dialogue. This reminds us that lasting peace begins with faith in human dignity and shared responsibility. October has long been significant in UPF’s history. In 2005, Founders Rev. Dr. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon inaugurated the Baltic region in Vilnius, Lithuania, declaring that true freedom exists for the common good. Their tour continued to Warsaw and Prague, spreading messages of moral renewal and peace. UPF has since hosted interfaith conferences in Israel, African peace conferences, and youth initiatives across Europe and Asia, demonstrating that dialogue, education, and collaboration are vital for reconciliation and unity. Today, Ambassadors for Peace and partner organizations continue this work worldwide through forums, interfaith dialogues, and volunteer programs. Many align their efforts with UN Disarmament Week, emphasizing that peace is not only the reduction of weapons but also the moral act of disarming prejudice and fear. UPF’s message remains clear: global peace begins with individual conscience and service, and connecting local action with international ideals makes the dream of a peaceful world a reality.

Despite only a week’s notice, 40 faith and community leaders gathered to support religious liberty and interfaith solidarity, focusing on the detention of Mother Han, co-founder of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification, and other Christian leaders in South Korea. Dr. Achile Acolatse, Southeast Region Director, called the gathering an urgent reminder to defend freedom of faith, while Dr. Michael Jenkins, UPF-North America President, highlighted Mother Han’s decades-long work promoting peace, dialogue, and humanitarian efforts. Leaders from Christianity, Islam, and Sikhism offered prayers, shared messages of solidarity, and coordinated special prayer services to advocate for justice and freedom. The event exemplified the unifying power of faith, showing that when communities come together, they can inspire hope, protect religious rights, and advance peace for all.   Read the Full Article HERE AMBASSADOR FOR PEACE SPOTLIGHT Eric Zuley Founder & CEO, eZWay Network | CMO, Better Vision for Children | Los Angeles, CA UPF proudly recognizes Ambassador Dr. Eric J.

The former United Nations Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon, appointed in 2015 Jean Todt as his Special Envoy for Road Safety. He was reconfirmed in this role by United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, in 2017 and in 2021. The Special Envoy contributes, among other things, to mobilize sustained political commitment to make road safety a priority; to advocate and raise awareness of UN legal instruments on road safety; to share established good practices in this area; to striving to generate adequate funding through strategic partnerships between the public, private and non-governmental sectors. As part of these efforts, in 2018, together with 14 UN organizations, the Special Envoy launched the UN Road Safety Fund (UNRSF). Special Envoy brochure and X account.

VH1 voted Bob Anderson the number one celebrity impersonator in the world––an honor that was also given to him by People Magazine. In addition to his exacting impressions, he is a highly acclaimed singer in his own right. Anderson’s story reads like a classic novel. In 1973, he snuck into the Sahara’s Congo Room to watch a Nancy Sinatra rehearsal. During that rehearsal, the Everly Brothers (Nancy’s opening act) got into an argument and walked out. Enter 23-year-old Anderson, who told the musical conductor that he was a singer; with only a few hours until the start of the show and no opening act, Nancy Sinatra’s producer handed Anderson a mic and let him prove himself. He did: Anderson went on in place of the Everly Brothers and played the entire two-week engagement at the Sahara.
Shortly after that engagement, Anderson accompanied Nancy Sinatra to “The Merv Griffin Show,” his first appearance on national television, for which he received a standing ovation. Merv Griffin was impressed, and months later, after seeing him perform at the Ye Little Club in Beverly Hills, Griffin invited Anderson to his 50th birthday celebration. It was at Merv Griffin’s party where Anderson started singing and imitating the voices of well-known vocalists. The crowd loved it. Cary Grant was sitting on the floor by the piano, saying, “This is really amazing; I have never seen anything like this!”
Anderson soon became a regular on talk and variety shows, with more than 200 appearances on television networks and shows including “The Mike Douglas Show,” “The Merv Griffin Show,” “Late Night With David Letterman,” “The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson” and on Showtime and HBO. He has performed in more Las Vegas showrooms than just about anyone. When Las Vegas celebrated 50 years of entertainment, Bob Anderson was voted number 12, between Barbra Streisand and Ray Charles, on a list of Vegas’ all-time-favorite acts.
Anderson wrote and starred in the award-winning show, FRANK The Man The Music at The Palazzo Theater in Las Vegas. Within weeks of opening, FRANK became the talk of the town and the must-see show. The running theme and spirit of every review was, “I saw Frank Sinatra the other night. I don’t care if it was Bob Anderson–I saw Frank Sinatra the other night.”
