Opera for Peace Information

Opera for Peace: Mission, Vision, Ambitions, Values Opera for Peace is a new cultural movement reflecting the reality of today's globalized world, building our cultural and creative future together through passion and determination. We believe in the strength of connecting nations and transcending differences through the unifying communication of opera. We strongly aspire for the advancement of this lyric art form and promoting positive universal values - most importantly, mutual respect, whilst working towards a common goal of artistic excellence. Opera for Peace aims to promote the art form of opera in all countries around the world. We are also aware that the personal development of an artist includes an awareness of the position they hold in society. This special status gives them the opportunity to communicate their convictions about the most serious concerns humanity faces, topics outlined by the World Economic Forum: climate change, security, inequality, poverty, civil rights, in addition to mental health and body positivity. Working closely with opera houses, institutions, and international organizations, we will facilitate cultural understanding by identifying, supporting, and guiding the world's next generation of opera stars. These promising young artists will become ambassadors for our values, uniting and positively influencing society and future generations. Artistic development occurs through a unique, flexible and personalized global schedule of high-level training projects, concerts, masterclasses, educational exchanges, special cultural diplomatic projects, and events. These events will frequently be presented in collaboration with our Peace Ambassadors and guest artists. We provide special support to artists from disadvantaged backgrounds, and will promote social justice and equality through our collaborations. Additionally, we provide a platform for our artists and partners to speak about the essential social issues facing our world.
