individuals and communities from traumatic experiences, to bring
back humanity and hope in war-torn countries , to bond and unify
communities and individuals and therefore to help make peace, with
ourselves and with each other.
The Charter will inspire and unite all the efforts of individuals and the
charities of international celebrities, musicians and artists who wish to
spread love and peace to the world.
