The International Peace Bureau (IPB) is a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1910. Over
the years, 14 of its officers have been recipients of the Nobel Peace Prize. From more
than 100 countries around the world more than 400 national and international institutions
and individuals affiliated with IPB and actively working to give meaning to the vision of a
World Without War, It is undoubtedly a matter of pride that I became a member of IPB
from 5th of March 2026 in the capacity Lumbini-Kapilvastu Global Campaign Global
Coordinator.
The Lumbini-Kapilvastu Global Campaign, established at the public level, has been
working with the objective of dispelling the Buddha birthplace misconception all over the
world, based on three major pillars: reinforcement of democracy and the world peace
movement, and the protecting against human rights violations. It has already achieved
numerous national and international milestones. Since there is a synergy between the
objectives of our global campaign and the IPB, the importance of working together in
harmony in the present world context is clear. Therefore, taking its membership as the
Global Coordinator of the campaign is relevant. Among its 19 national committees, the
Belgium National Committee has already taken its membership.
We will always stand together in reinforcing democracy and the world peace movement
and defending against human rights violations.
