Peace, Action, Inclusion – PAI
General information
Project name: Peace, Action, Inclusion – PAI
Country: Finland
Timeline: From 1 March 2025 to 31 December 2025
Lead Organisation: Suomen Rauhanpuolustajat
Partner Organisation: Finland
Summary of Action
The grounds of the PAI-project are based on Agenda 2030 targets 5 and 16. We will gather together many different stakeholders to study and plan future peace work that will be inclusive and intersectional. We will especially concentrate on how to constructively address issues that are difficult, or even polarizing. As a result we will have tools to talk and act for peace. We strive for people to aim for peace in different parts of life. We’ll also have new people having the identity of a peace activist and working for peace.
The groups that we will involve are:
1. Young people aged 18 to 30, (concerned about recent research and e.g. results of election in the US we aim especially to reach cis-men)
2. Old peace activists,
3. Young Palestinians, Kurds and Uighurs living in Finland.
We will have workshops and events during the year around Finland. The first event will be a weekend-long Future Laboratory. Other workshops will be held in Helsinki, Turku, Tampere, Joensuu, and Rovaniemi. Along the way short videos and other content will be produced for social media. The young people involved in the planning of this project agree that Tiktok and Instagram should be our main platforms. We’ll create a website for the project.
There will also be a comic book that follows the project journey and contains ideas that have been crystallized. The book will be published as short strips online and as a printed book in long form.
