Article: Harry Styles supports Soul of WoMen event for Peace Conference
June 14th, 2018: During his present World Tour, singer and songwriter Harry Styles has chosen various local charities in his tour cities to support through some of the proceeds from his ticket and merchandise sales. While in Scotland at Glasgow recently, he chose to give support to a special conference named The Soul of Women which is an event preceding the World Peace Festival held at the World Peace Prayer Society Sanctuary in Dumfries and Galloway. Dumfries is home to Clare Uchima, a member of Harry’s band on tour. Clare’s parents are both very involved, with her mum being an organizer of the event and her father handmaking their world peace poles at the Allanton Peace Sanctuary in Scotland.
According to BBC a spokesperson for the event, Glenda Thorton, stated they “were very thankful” for Harry Styles’s support and the funding was being used for the conference which is “everybody and anybody” to attend; she further explained “it is to explore how we can create a more balanced world.”
This June 23rd will be the second Soul of WoMen event held, with its focus on balancing the masculine and feminine qualities in ourselves, communities, and the world.
Throughout the day the participants will be focusing on how to inspire and empower a more gender-balanced world.
According to their World Peace Festival website, there will be key guest speakers, round-table discussions, and workshops which involve seeking real world solutions to answer the question: How can we create a more balanced world locally and globally, wherein qualities within us all are working in harmony?

This conference is not the only work done with the The World Peace Innitiative. The Allanton World Peace Santuary, for example, works year round and already has in place an approach in education called the ‘Peace Prevails Programme’ which they began in 2005. This involves training teachers who work with the next generation children of the world by helping them incorporate within their daily school education an awareness of what world peace can be and how it mighth look for the future. The course is called “May Peace Prevail On Earth” and is an on-line training course for educators accessible world-wide with hopes for educators internationally to get involved in their World Peace vision.
The World Peace Festival, which follows the Soul of WoMen event, is on June 24th and consists of a World Peace Flag ceremony, live music, and many diverse workshops for celebrating the cultural diversity of humanity.
