2. CONCERTS FOR PEACE
Our first PEACE CONCERT took place on 5 September 2009 in the Durban City Hall. Read about it in our NEWS section. Peace Concerts, with the message of how peace is possible, will take place throughout South Africa, highlighting the talents of local musicians, singers and choirs and backed by our own symphony orchestras. During the concerts, a few minutes are devoted to speaking about the power and responsibility each of us has to be the peace we wish to see in the world, and make a difference – each day - through our thoughts and actions.
