What is International Peace Festival?

The International Peace Festival (IPF) is a student generated event that serves as a celebration and student learning showcase with a focus on peace. The event is hosted online and in person.

The program is designed to reinforce the joy of learning while increasing the practice of peace. It’s an active celebration that gives the student an opportunity to self-determine what is important to them and share this enthusiasm and knowledge with peers.

“Making knowledge so accessible that peace is inevitable.” is our motto
