Global Peace Youth Corps – Philippines (GPYC)
An international non-profit cross-cultural sector global alliance of young leaders and youth-related organizations, its main objective is to promote world peace, reduce global poverty & disease through building a global culture of service and volunteerism and celebrate young persons and programs that contribute to reconciliation, mutual respect, harmony and cooperation among the members of the whole human family, as ‘One Family under God’. In partnership with a variety of stakeholders in youth leadership development, GPYC brings together young leaders of all faiths, cultures, nationalities, and interests under a common vision and universal principles aiming to positively impact youth culture. Through its advocacy of core thematic ideals {Aspirations, Principles & Values} that enhance practical agenda for youth development, young people of all categories are influenced and could get hold of an interest to partake in peace-building efforts involving the youth sector. College campuses, in particular, are especially significant in defining the culture and values of the next generation of leaders. It is mainly for that reason why GPYC is more visible in the college campuses. In order to move a nation toward peace, one must first move the youth of that nation. Therefore, the success of GPYC is critical to the success of the entire GPF movement.

Global Peace TVAs Christian media pioneers in Delhi, Benny Jacob broke new ground for the Kingdom of God in 2010 when they established the first daily faith-based online TV network for the whole world .Unfortunately, today’s public broadcasters have moved away from these ideals, providing little godly programming. The Lord has clearly had to raise up a new breed of broadcasters to reclaim the airwaves. Among them is Benny Jacob, who began to challenge broadcast restrictions in 2010. In India, GLOBAL PEACE TV is going to make a major inroads through cable distribution and is planning to reach more than 15 million cable homes covering 200 cities and towns. GLOBAL PEACE TV forges ahead to fulfill its divine mandate to reach ONE BILLION SOULS. And this is just the beginning… there is much more to come!19 supporters -
