Info
Women for Peace – “Voices of peace, memory, and culture united to build a future of hope” is not merely a performance, but an intercultural act of remembrance and renewal.It celebrates women supporting other women as pillars of peacebuilding in the contemporary global arena. Led by international artists from different generations and geographies, this deeply emotional operatic experience reinterprets the role of women asguardians of memory, voices of resilience, and architects of peace, offering a journey that transcends borders and time. Through evocative soundscapes, live opera, traditional instruments, and intimate narration, it traces a powerful arc from the ancestral echoes of the past, to the urgency of the present, and toward a future shaped by the creative and transformative strength of women’s voices. This project is presented in honor of the United Nations International Day of Peace, reaffirming our shared commitment to dialogue, solidarity, and the universal pursuit of lasting peace. Born from a vision of cultural diplomacy and artistic excellence, the project invites institutions, embassies, UN agencies, NGOs, cultural institutions, corporate organizations, and the public to come together in a shared space of reflection and hope. It places women at the center of a global message of dignity and equality, not as victims of conflict, but as catalysts of peace and cultural connection. Modular and adaptable, the initiative can be hosted in diplomatic, theatrical, or museum contexts, transforming each into a vibrant stage of memory, healing, and transcendence. It affirms the power of opera and music as instruments of solidarity, paving the way for future collaborations in which harmony becomes a form of hope and cultural expression becomes a tool for peace.
