Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding.

We want, at this stage, to comfort and dispel any talk about panic among the public regarding the events in the general Near Eastern region with respect to the conflict which is taking place there, this is, in our opinion, not a large conflict and likely will not lead to a wider conflict. The issue is straightforward and revolves around forms of Nationalism which have been allowed to fester in that region for far too long, and which has spawned an extremist form of politics both in the US and UK, which we are all aware of.
The situation essentially revolves around the Islamic Republic of Iran’s domestic energy posture and electricity production both for its domestic and external export markets. It seems that the Jewish nationalists and elements of American Nationalist movements do not want to see a stable Iran on the International stage.
The rest of the World, which certainly is a lot more powerful and influential on the International stage, has no problem with Iran producing domestic energy by Nuclear means, as the nation of the Islamic Republic of Iran has a long and proven record of Nuclear energy research and development that does not entail weaponisation of Nuclear material, the Government and people of the Islamic Republic of Iran have publicly stated they will not weaponise Nuclear material and have done so for religious reasons, which has long been accepted by the International Community.
Of course, you will have to make your own judgements about why there is a conflict in that region, and why there is always a conflict of some kind in that region.
I can assure you, it is not the result of religion, faith, tolerance, love and understanding.
But then, you already knew that.
It is the local community that needs to own the commitment to education.
Friday, 13 March, 2026.
In any situation, the People will try to find answers to difficult issues with the available resources they have, so education is going to be the forerunner of any understanding, and education is, fundamentally, an issue that relates to self confidence and mutual respect. No matter what the People believe, understanding Internationalism is always going to resolve to a Universalist principle that carries meaning on the International stage, not for the puritanical beliefs centered on national short term position, but on the essential welfare of the overall community.
Because the International Community is, a community.
Have a nice day.

First countries ratify Mercosur Agreement: Press statement
Monday, 9 March, 2026.
There is no form of Nationalism here at the Peace, nationalism does not form any part of our politic, and isn’t useful to anything we do or say.
Nationalism is chaos and serves no-ones interests.

Alpha Female Award winner and shortlist revealed
It's International Women's Day, and although we celebrate women in photography every day here at the World Photography Organisation, today we shine an extra bright spotlight to bring their talent to the fore.
The Alpha Female Award, focused on supporting women photographers, was created by the World Photography Organisation and Sony US through their Alpha Universe’s Alpha Female programme.
The winner receives Sony Digital Imaging equipment and will be on show at the Sony World Photography Awards 2026 exhibition in London’s Somerset House.
Congratulations to German photographer Fiona Stappmanns, winner of this year’s Alpha Female Award. Fiona’s practice is rooted in a passion for outdoor sports, vast landscapes and wildlife. Her work sits at the intersection of conservation and nature - capturing moments of both beauty and fragility to inspire people to protect the world around them.
In this compelling black-and-white photograph, Stappmanns captures the moment a black rhino diverts from the herd during migration and crosses the Sand River in Kenya’s Maasai Mara alone, the wide angle exposing the vastness of the landscape around the animal.
