“It isn’t enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.”
Those of us who make-up INSPIRE know that peace-making isn’t easy. It only flourishes when we are willing to let go of our fear, dedicate ourselves to deliberately finding common ground and seek to understand one another, so when troubles arise, we pursue dialogue and reconciliation.
INSPIRE launched on Friday 9th November 2018 in venues across the UK; a call to action to create a movement of change for young people who not only learn from the past but choose to courageously engage with the present so that the future can be different.

“To inspire and equip a movement of young people to become active peace builders within their local communities; creating inclusive neighbourhoods that seek reconciliation and inclusion.”
INSPIRE EVENTS
On the morning of Friday 9th November 2018, two days before Armistice Day, we held a series of high profile, simultaneous INSPIRE events in Cathedrals and other major public venues around the UK and Ireland, all designed for children and young people.
