Universal Peace Connection

Universal Peace Connection

Universal Peace Connection (UPC) is a voluntary group of individuals, who not only aspire to world peace but hold dialogues with others and take actual steps toward that end.
Most of us are not peace activists or lobbyists; we believe that everyone can be a part of peace-achieving efforts.

About UPC

What do you want to be remembered for?

To the leaders of nations, regions, communities, industries, and corporations:

What would you answer if you were asked, “What do you want to be remembered for?”

The world needs peace, not war, not devastation.
What we all should focus on is dealing with the destruction wrought by earthquake, fire, flood, and other natural disasters. We have little control over them and they are hard to prevent. We can prevent war. War is a “manmade disaster.”

Many of our members have studied with Peter F. Drucker, who wished for a healthy,  functioning society.




 

A famous question that Peter Drucker asked leaders was,

“What do you want to be remembered for?”

In a history textbook for the next generation, do you want to be remembered as a leader who created war in the 21st century?

OR

Do you want to be remembered as a leader who stepped back and tolerated war?

OR

Do you want to be remembered as a peacemaker? One who led society through the complex, diverse, and interconnected era of the 21st century?

What do you want to be remembered for?

We would like a leader who does those things that will make the difference in realizing a peaceful tomorrow. 

Like all great things, we started small. We took a few like-minds with a shared vision—and ran with it. Today, we’ve grown into something big.
