It has truly been an honor working with you this year.

2020 was full of unprecedented challenges, but we have been deeply encouraged by the inherent strengths within our human family. Instead of becoming divided, we grew closer, rather than becoming discouraged, we sparked new innovation.

Undaunted, we continued our crucial peacebuilding work, online and on the ground. We banded together across continents to provide basic needs for vulnerable communities, encourage and inspire each other, and generate solutions that addressed our new realities.

Education was hard hit in every nation. It was truly inspiring to see every chapter rise to the occasion, to seize the opportunity presented by our present crisis and bring all sectors to the table to envision a new paradigm for education. Our forums became incubators, birthing creative solutions for complex questions of equity, access, and well-being.

We are incredibly proud of everyone, our team members and partners around the world, who fearlessly and tirelessly advanced peace in 2020.

We value your partnership and look forward to our continued work together in 2021.

Please stay safe and healthy. Wishing you and your family a warm holiday season and blessed new year.
