We are very honoured to collaborate during the last year with the International Peace Project Kids’-Guernica.
On the 26th of April, on the occasion of the 85th anniversary of the Civil War in Guernica, there will be the award ceremony for the Peace project, including Kids’-Guernica. Savina Tarsitano will be present at the ceremony to represent Kids’ Guernica and to accept the award on behalf of the International Kids Guernica. In this difficult period of war, we highlight the importance of Peace.
The Japanese initiative «Kids Guernica», which commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Hiroshima nuclear attack and fosters a culture of peace among children, and the «International Peace Brigades», who work for the protection of Human Rights in regions of crisis, will be awarded the «Gernika for Peace» prize on April 26 during the acts commemorating the bombing and the Culture and Peace Convention.
The Gernika Awards for Peace and Reconciliation were established in 2005 by the Gernika-Lumo and Pforzheim City Councils, the Gernika Peace Museum Foundation, the Gernika-Lumo House of Culture, Gernika Gogoratuz and the Basque-German Wilhelm Humboldt association, with the aim of publicly recognising contributions to the construction of peace and the promotion of reconciliation, human rights and social justice.
