Jointly Organized by GPYC Indonesia
and
Global Peace Festival Indonesia
Foundation
Global Peace
Volunteer (GPV) is a program that provides a platform for undergraduate
students to exchange ideas and learn through service towards fostering a culture of service and volunteerism. Besides, it is also an opportunity to raise
young leaders of character, values and virtues.
Our society and world have seen a rise in individualism and decline in service
and volunteerism. The culture of
selfish-individualism is seriously affecting especially the youths, as they
increasingly look after their own individual interests without considering the
needs of society or the community. The damaging consequences include a decline
of values (such as honesty, tolerance and compassion), racism, and decline in
family. GPV encourage students to pursue personal excellence
through challenging one’s limitations and using their capacities for the
greater good and for others.
GPV Regional Camp, Indonesia – Malaysia is a 4 days training camp that will
invite 15 prominent young people from Indonesia and Malaysia to conduct
discussion and dialogue, sharing best practice, leadership training, study
tour, and service project in local community in order to create direct
interaction between participants and local community.

6.0. Closing
The ideals
of One Family under God is crucial to be planted in the hearts of young
generation to further foster tolerance and create more people with the mindset
of a global citizen. Under those hopes, the two days GPV camp wish to be a
starting point or even continuation of goodness that will be spread around the
local community. Moreover, those involved in the organizing committee would
benefit from the experience, having a global-scaled movement on hand, gathering
peers and colleagues to work and make the world a better place.
