Peace Rallies
From Argentina to Zambia
Massive Peace Rallies launch GPI initiatives and rally community-based solutions to human needs — promoting peace, security, and stability while creating direct access to presidents, prime ministers and kings who hold the power to change lives.
Through these rallies, Dr. Paul has mediated conflict between tribal leaders and nations, addressed human rights abuses, and inspired millions of volunteers to rebuild their own communities — owned and directed by the local people themselves.

From Hopelessness to Holy Purpose

"Hopelessness and suicide turned into smiles, service, and peace."
