Nyamata Peace Club of Rwanda
Nyamata
To create a peaceful society by introducing meditation and mindfulness
“Peace Club”
is a local community of like-minded people who want to develop and empower themselves through meditation combining it with other initiatives to make society a better place to live. Peace Club can be established anywhere in the world. The idea is to find out and promote the local solutions for local and global problems. This regular gathering emerges from the principle of Peace In Peace Out P.I.P.O.
This means the club members regularly practice meditation and apply in their lives self-development tools to reach out their full potential and encourage each other to continuously improve their lives in all aspects.
Apart from practicing meditation which is the main theme and culture of Peace Club, each local club can implement their own projects that contribute to their society in various ways.
Below are the Peace Clubs around the world
“PIPO Club”
is another form of community under the bigger concept of “Peace Club”. PIPO Club consists of students from different universities who come together to begin their self-development journey together and acquire the opportunities to work on different projects that help the society. In Thailand, for instance, PIPO Club Thailand came up with a project called “Klao” where they organize events to raise awareness and inspire people to develop themselves and their habits. The club has organized a series of activities including: a number of talk shows where they successfully invited influential people in Thailand to speak and inspire youngsters to develop themselves; charitable activities such as cleaning public restrooms to reduce their ego; and media production where “Klao” has become a very well-known social media platform for trendy self-development.
