GLOBAL CHALLENGES
UNSUSTAINABLE BEHAVIOUR | We are using up natural resources 1.75 times faster than they can regenerate.
PERSISTING INEQUALITIES | 736 million people still live below the poverty line of 1.90$ per day.
IMPACT OF VIOLENCE | 1.5 billion people live in fragile states. Conflict costs the economy $14 trillion a year.
REFUGEE CRISIS | 70.8 million people are on the run globally.
OUR ANSWER
We believe that the challenges of today are consequences of conflicts, lack of cohesion and an increased separation between communities around the world. Global trends are putting pressure on our societies.
We cannot wait until someone else comes up with solutions.
It takes YOU and ME to ACT!
That’s MasterPeace.
OUR VISION
We believe that the world has 7 billion talents rather than 7 billion issues.
Therefore, we use the “soft power” of music, art, sports and play to MOBILIZE and INSPIRE young people.
We believe that there is more that we have in common than what separates us.
Therefore, we organize DIALOGUE within and between communities and stakeholders.
We believe that the lack of perspective triggers polarization, extremism and conflict.
Therefore, we create PERSPECTIVE through capacity-building and leadership trainings for young people.
OUR MISSION
Mobilize, inspire and connect talents for a sustainable future with less conflict.
OUR CORE VALUES
Positivity, impartiality, co-creation and “walk the talk”.
OUR WORK
MasterPeace carries out its work through its local arms – MasterPeace Clubs. As a global community, we act across all continents and co-create innovative and sustainable projects for local change. The projects that MasterPeace Clubs carry out are aligned with our 3 main themes and 4 focus SDGs:
OUR TEAM
We are a group of inspiring and enthusiastic changemakers who are working on creating peace one step at a time within our own community.

🚀 Last week, Aart Bos from MasterPeace visited the stunning country of Cameroon! 🌍
Our mission: Boosting the impact of “Cameroon Renewed,” co-funded by Erasmus Plus, alongside Noorderpoort, APRO International, and local heroes Hope4Better Future, FAP, and Sopisdew.
We’re empowering local trainers in renewable energy, social entrepreneurship, and growth mindset. These trailblazers will educate 200 youngsters and 100 engineers, creating sustainable jobs and enhancing TVET centers.
In #Foumbot, regional stakeholders showed massive support, and in Yaoundé, we teamed up with the Ministry of Education on groundbreaking vocational training.
Curious about the full adventure? Check our website for Aart’s inspiring story! 🌟 #MasterPeace
Nederland Heeft Gewonnen! 🇳🇱⚽️
Wat een dag! Tijdens de EK-wedstrijd Nederland tegen Roemenië hebben we vanuit MasterPeace, samen met Buurtkamer Vrederust en Staedion, een te gekke outdoor wedstrijdkijkdag georganiseerd in de Barbiersgaarde. 🌟
Met gezonde snacks gemaakt door de buurtmoeders hebben we met jong en oud samen naar de wedstrijd gekeken. En na het eindsignaal? Toen speelden we een superleuke voetbalquiz met de jongeren! 🥳🏆
Het was een dag vol gezelligheid, verbinding en eenheid in de buurt.

🌟Jongeren uit Moerwijk zetten hun wijk in de schijnwerpers! 🌟
De jongeren van @wijkzmoerwijk en @block33hub en kinderen van de P. Oosterlee School volgden inspirerende fotografie workshops en namen ons mee in hun leefwereld. Met honderden foto’s lieten zij zien wat Moerwijk voor hen betekent. Samen met de jeugd, wijkbewoners en ondernemers hebben we deze beelden bekeken en bijzondere verhalen verzameld.
De afgelopen weken heeft een groep jongeren van Wijkz en Block33, in samenwerking met @kijklab en MasterPeace, hun unieke kijk op Moerwijk vastgelegd. Onder leiding van @jamal.wijkz, @asefeheskandari, @jeffreygrouwstra, @rooskoole, @doormeijer, @yarimacarina, Shilaf Badia Sliman en Ayoub Aydin, hebben zij dit project tot leven gebracht. Vele andere Moerwijkers hebben ook hun steentje bijgedragen om deze prachtige serie te realiseren.
🔍 Door de lens van de Moerwijkers zelf, zijn er interessante gesprekken ontstaan en hebben we nieuwe inzichten gekregen in vijf belangrijke thema`s:
1. Identiteit
2. Leefomgeving
3. Netwerk
4. Gezondheid/voeding
5. Trots
🚀Op woensdag 5 juni hebben zij hun werk gepresenteerd bij Block33, inclusief de prachtig ontworpen publicatie door @bureau_visueel

MasterPeace is trots om deel uit te maken van het Samenwerkingsverband voor kansengelijkheid & burgerschapsonderwijs!
Afgelopen dinsdag waren wij aanwezig op de SKB kennis(makings)markt in Utrecht. Alle SKB partners waren aanwezig om elkaar beter te leren kennen. Samen werken we aan de missie: gelijke kansen voor alle jongeren in Nederland. Mooi om te zien hoe elke organisatie dat op zijn eigen manier doet.
SKB-directeur Jeroen Paul Nijmeijer opende de middag en zorgde er direct voor dat iedereen met een nog onbekende kennis kon maken. Hasse van Nunen deelde haar beelden van de docu Klassen en naar aanleiding hiervan gingen we in gesprek over de positieve invloed van hoge verwachtingen op gelijke kansen.
Daarna was het tijd om echt met elkaar kennis te maken op de kennismarkt, waar elke partner een mooi kraampje had ingericht en we bij elkaar op bezoek konden.
Bedankt voor de inspirerende, waardevolle en gezellige middag.
Op naar mooie samenwerkingen en gelijke kansen voor alle jongeren in Nederland!
