IWPG Gimhae Branch Holds Completion Ceremony 
for the 8th Women’s Peace Education Program




The completion ceremony of the 8th Women’s Peace Education Program by the IWPG Gimhae Branch was held to honor participants who diligently completed all eight sessions. It was more than a formal event, as it celebrated the dedication and growth of each participant. The ceremony reflected appreciation for their commitment to learning and practicing peace in everyday life.

The program covered a wide range of topics, including peace and identity, civic capacity, culture, war, international law, and the role of women in peacebuilding. By combining theory with real-world examples, participants were able to better understand peace as a lived value rather than an abstract idea. Many shared that the sessions encouraged deeper reflection on their responsibilities within society.

One graduate shared that watching visual materials about war made its reality feel far more immediate and personal. Scenes of destroyed cities and suffering civilians left a lasting impression on her. Through the education, she came to reflect deeply on the value of peace and the importance of global efforts to prevent conflict.

The Gimhae Branch Chairperson emphasized that the program helped participants realize peace as a value closely tied to everyday life. She expressed hope that Women’s Peace Education would continue to expand and reach more members of the community. She also noted that collective participation is key to building a safer and more compassionate society.
