Join the Just Peace Festival!

The Just Peace Festival is a vibrant platform for dialogue, collaboration, and action on the pressing global challenges of peace and justice. Held in The Hague — known as the International City of Peace and Justice — the festival takes place as the city prepares to host the 2025 NATO Summit. It offers a timely opportunity to reflect on NATO's role in global security and explore alternative pathways for lasting peace.

The Just Peace Festival will be the highlight and culmination of the Hague’s Road to the Summit programme. It is a collaborative, multistakeholder initiative organised by The Hague Humanity Hub, Leiden University and Spreeek, with the support of the Municipality of The Hague. We invite YOU to join us by contributing your voice, creativity, and expertise.
