In a display of global unity and commitment to positive change, the Global Changemakers Summit and Award, organized by Project 100, unfolded in Bangkok, Thailand. Under the esteemed guidance of His Excellency George Mkondiwa, the chairman of Project 100, the summit achieved unparalleled success in fostering collaboration and driving impactful change. Project 100, a global membership-based organization dedicated to creating social and environmental peace for all, serves as a powerful network of influential leaders. The organization’s mission revolves around fostering regenerative global development through international cooperation, commerce, diplomacy, and grassroots action.
The summit, hosted under the theme of Social and Environmental Peace (SEP), aimed to delve deeper into the realms of social peace, transcending the mere absence of conflict to nurture conditions that allow individuals to realize their full potential. SEP also addressed critical issues such as discrimination, economic disparities, and limited access to healthcare and education, and ensured inclusive decision-making. The often-overlooked aspect of humans respecting the environment and coexisting harmoniously with nature was highlighted, recognizing that peace is unattainable unless the complete cycle is functional.
