The Media Education Centre initiative is showcasing Virtual Museums for Peace globally. These vital museums share inspiring stories of peace, antiwar histories, and social justice. Discover their unique narratives and the challenges they face. Today - Museum Henry Dunant, Switzerland, www.dunant-museum.ch

The Peace Bell in front of the Henry Dunant Museum is one of the few copies of the church bell that survived the atomic bombing of Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, almost unscathed. The ringing of the Peace Bell commemorates the nuclear catastrophe and sets a sign for peace.

We envision a world where every interaction, decision, and initiative is steeped in respect for our collective life, embracing new media and digital pedagogies, ecological balance, universal human rights, cultural and artistic diversity, economic fairness, and the pursuit of peace.
