Message from the President

Thank you for visiting Lumbini-Kapilvastu Global Campaign, Belgium (LKGCB) website. LKGCB is a non-religious, non-political, and non-governmental organization and our vision is to promote Buddha, world peace and social harmony.

Each of us is continuing to face unprecedented challenges over the past years. This includes limited social contacts, conflicts, stress, mental illness, poverty, violence, and discrimination among others.

We are against violence and any form of discrimination, and promote world peace, justice and sustainable society. Our work is focused on three main areas.

1.  Promote Buddha, world peace and social harmony: A peaceful and secure environment is essential to build a sustainable society and realize full human potential. In addition, peace encompasses happiness and harmony among living beings. The word peace is associated with Buddha, who was born in Lumbini, Nepal. We promote messages of Buddha ranging from inner peace to world peace and Lumbini as a world peace city.

Nuclear weapons and climate emergency are two existential threats to humanity and world peace. We advocate to abolish nuclear weapons and address climate emergencies to promote world peace.

In addition, we participate in various peace activities including the celebration of International Day of Peace on the 21st September.

 

2.  Contribute to SDG 16 and SDG 17: The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 16 (SDG 16 or Global Goal 16) is about peace, justice and strong institutions. SDG 17 is about revitalizing the global partnership for sustainable development. LKGCB is actively supporting partnerships at various local, national, and international level and contributing to achieve SDG 16 and SDG 17 goals.

 

3.  Provide humanitarian support: Humanitarian crisis or emergency situations arise because of several factors such as natural disasters or conflict situations. We provide humanitarian assistance to those who face emergency situations or extreme poverty.

We highly welcome your comments, feedback and look forward to your support in promoting world peace and build a society free of worries about human rights, mental illness or discrimination of any kind. Please contact or join us.
