Peace of Art: From Beirut to Nairobi—A Global Stand on Hardship and Hope

Kenya ⎯ September 17, 2025 ⎯ We are excited to share a major highlight from the Global Partners Conference in Nairobi, Kenya, where our Executive Director, Mr. Ebrahim Yahya, represented Peace of Art on the international stage!
The conference was a vital platform that brought together partners from Europe, the Middle East, and Africa to engage in crucial dialogue. Mr. Yahya's address focused on the profound and often challenging experiences of the region's civil society organizations (CSOs).
Key Focus: Hardship, Resilience, and Shared Experience
In his remarks, Mr. Yahya shared powerful insights, emphasizing the importance of:
Sharing Experiences: Openly discussing how CSOs navigate and cope with hardship and violence in their communities.
Civil Society Sacrifices: Recognizing the extraordinary dedication and sacrifices made by civil society actors who are working on the front lines to build peace and stability.
This event in Nairobi strengthens the global network committed to peacebuilding and underscores Peace of Art's belief in the power of shared experience. By uniting voices from different continents, we bolster our collective capacity to transform adversity into an opportunity for impactful change through art and advocacy.
