In a world increasingly fractured by conflict and uncertainty, the launch of the World Park for Peace in Dubai offers a timely and powerful symbol of hope, unity, and sustainability. Set within the historic Al Fahidi area, the park is an immersive exhibition that speaks a universal language – the language of peace through the eyes and imagination of children. The park opening was attended by well known local Emirati artist, Shaikh Ali Abdalla Rashid Nasir Almulla and International Opera Singer, Inva Mula.

The World Park for Peace invites visitors on a moving journey through creatively curated spaces that reflect the core elements of the universe. Each room has been transformed to evoke emotion and inspiration, showcasing the profound connection between humanity, nature, and our shared future. At the heart of this experience is a global collection of more than 200,000 drawings till today from over 152 countries, a visual testament to the universal yearning for peace.

This monumental initiative stems from a decade-long movement led by the Association Colors for Peace. Over the past ten years, children aged 4 to 12 from every continent have contributed their visions of peace, resulting in one of the world’s most extensive children’s art archives dedicated to harmony and understanding.

Founder Aurela Cuku, whose vision brought the World Park for Peace to life, expressed the deeper mission behind the project. “In a time when the world is seeking answers, we are choosing to listen to the quiet voices of children. These are voices that imagine a world without war, without fear, and without division,” said Cuku. “The World Park for Peace is not just an exhibition; it is a call to action. It is a tangible space where nations connect without borders, where art becomes diplomacy, and where children lead the way toward a peaceful tomorrow.”

The transformation of the House of Peace honors Dubai’s heritage while creating a global dialogue rooted in innocence, creativity, and sustainable values. As the UAE continues to champion cultural tolerance and coexistence, this landmark project is set to become a cornerstone of international cultural diplomacy and a beacon of inspiration for generations to come.

The World Park for Peace is now partly open to the public, offering a unique and timely opportunity to witness the extraordinary power of art, imagination, and unity — through the eyes of a child.
