International Day of Peace 21 September 2009
WupY 1st Anniversary September 2009
12 - 21 September 2009
Overview:
------------
Young people are using the Internet more and more not only for entertainment, but also to voice their opinions about the issues that surround them. They are no longer mere consumers of the news. They make it. And by time Internet spreads to people from the urban to the rural communities and across different living standards. Such variety of users has enriched the list of topics that are opened by these users because each comes with their own background and package of problems/challenges.
For these young people, Culture of Peace is a hot topic from the time they are in school. The Internet provides the best space for young people to gather around and discuss this hot topic. What is the Culture of Peace? How can we do this? Are there other alternatives? And the questions can go on.
The idea is to organize a Campaign for young people in the world to express their opinions in writing (articles, Blogging and poetry from young people), art gallery for artistic expression and Podcast about Culture of Peace. The Campaign will benefit from the spread of using the Internet and the ease of communication it provides. The Campaign will be hosted on the pages of WupY and published among target youth by our partners.

WupY
-------
In 20th September 2008, “What’s up Youth” came to the world as a non for profit network for young people, which communicates through its portal http://www.wupy.org offering a maximum of information active youth may need to exceed, develop their capacities, and help their communities. Thus, WupY gives a variety of free and practical services in one click for youth all around the world.
WupY is an initiative started by young & talented youth who noticed through their work in the civil society that there are a lot of offered programs and opportunities for youngsters but it doesn’t reach the mass of young activists. Therefore, WupY presented itself as a bridge between active and curious youth and the information they may need to develop their capacities and fulfill their dreams
