World Peace ONE

Contrary to any existing misperceptions and far more than a planned concert series, "World Peace ONE" (WP1) is a 10-Year Global Peace Initiative with a multiplicity of inventive global campaigns, programs and activities whose intent is to aid humanity in "ending all war" in favor of "Permanent Peace," by launching a massive "World Peace Movement, that emphasizes human re-inspiration, re-education and redirection.

All of WP1's programs are being organized by World Peace ONE Foundation, Inc., a Florida, USA non-profit organization.

WP1 is preparing a series of comprehensive Peace Ambassadorship Programs, targeting governments, religious groups and houses of worship, corporations, schools and universities, as well as celebrity groups, women's organizations, the sports community and world youth.

The WP1 Global SuperConcert is an musical event that will take place in several cities across the world.

The concert date is to be announced.

The purpose of the event is to move humanity toward "ending all war," in favor of "Permanent Peace.".

Revenues accruing to the Company generated from the WP1 Global SuperConcert include ticket sales and box office revenues, corporate sponsorships, licenisng, merchandising, including garments, memorabilia, collectibles, publications, royalties, aftermarket DVD’s, and on-site food and beverage concessions.
