Mission

About Global Country of World Peace N.I.

Global Country of World Peace NI, is a non-religious, multi-cultural charity, whose aims and objectives are to help create permanent peace by unifying the people of Belfast in prosperity, health and happiness, whilst supporting, respecting and celebrating the rich diversity of individual culture and tradition.   

Stress Free Schools and Communities 

Global Country works closely with young at-risk  teens in socially disadvantaged areas of Northern Ireland, particularly in the Belfast interface areas.  The Stress Free Schools and Communities Programme, with support from the David Lynch Foundation and other donations, is taught to children and teachers in schools, and to parents and individuals on both sides of the Belfast Peace Line.  Hundreds of people are now enjoying calmer clearer thinking, peacefulness and more self worth as a result of the programme.

Investment in Peace
Global Country of World Peace N.I. has acquired a beautiful building site, situated at the Peace Line on Peters Hill/Townsend Street, a few minutes walk from Belfast city centre. At present this is unsightly waste ground. 

Shared Spaces.
Full planning permission is in place for an exciting community project. Two beautiful buildings to provide shared spaces and a community college for the performing arts, sponsored by Hollywood Movie Maker David Lynch.
