The event showcased the Peace Pals, their collaborative projects and their spontaneous dialogue around their hopes and strategies for a more peaceful world, utilising a state-of-the-art, Kiwi designed communications technology platform. The project was the first global Peace Pal live link-up and was widely and enthusiastically welcomed and endorsed by teachers and principals.

One People One Planet is a revolutionary idea. It is an idea and an opportunity that we ignore at our peril. It’s time has come. Never before has there been the means to engage the view and talent of the world’s children and seeing what they might achieve in changing the face of the world. If we accept that, like us, all children have a deep heart-felt desire to be liked, understood and respected it is clear the kind of changes communicating as Peace Pals will bring. The world will gain a new voice The Voice of the Children. This voice can be heard and monitored globally for the very first time because of the radical developments in communications technology.
