We are now accepting designs for the Omotenashi Schools Project 2021.

Thank you to all schools who submitted designs for the 2012 and 2016 Schools' International Peace Quilt Projects and to those who took part in our new Olympic themed project called 'STRIDE for TRUCE'.

In 2012 the Schools' International Peace Quilt involved 203 Countries in one wish for Peace as a celebration of the London Games. Thank you again to everyone that participated.

The Schools' International Peace Quilt' of 2012 and 2016, Peace Patch UK and our new project 'Stride for Truce' help us further promote the OLYMPIC TRUCE which dates back to the original games in the 9th Century BC.

The idea was revived in 1993, when the United Nations passed Resolution 48/11. The central purpose of the Ancient Games was to provide for a pause in the endless cycle of violence through the observance of the Sacred Truce. Our ancient and supposedly less civilised ancestors made it work.

"The Children's Book of Peace" is another lasting legacy of the children's designs from London 2012.
