Servas BeLux

Alicante Peace Week, September 2023

The Peace Week was organised by Servas Spain, with the purpose to reflect on peace on all levels (inner peace, peace within organisations, world peace).

To make this more practical, most of the workshops were dedicated to “how to  improve communication in groups”.

The week was packed with encounters, theoretical and practical workshops on the theme of peace, excursions to discover the country and its culture, activities designed to refocus on oneself and learn to let go (morning gym followed by a daily Qi gong session), presentations of the group’s various talents (music, poetry, etc.), talks on Taiwan, exchanges of ideas, etc.

There were 50 participants of twelve nationalities: Spain, Italy, Portugal, Mexico, Sweden, the United Kingdom, the United States, Argentina, Uruguay, Taiwan, France and Belgium.
