Karima Budhwani, lawyer, appointed to Board of Peace it Together Society

Peace it Together Society
Empowering youth to promote peace through dialogue, filmmaking, and multimedia.

Our Vision
Our vision is to build a culture of creative leaders inspiring and educating others to work toward peace. It is unreasonable to expect youth to come to a peaceful resolution to a regional conflict if they are growing up in an environment of fear, anger, and alienation. Our programs are designed specifically to overcome these hurdles, while at the same time giving youth educational tools to disseminate to wider audiences, and facilitating their transition to community leaders.
