Global Leaders and Advocates Converge for Highly Successful WCH Emergency Online Peace Forum, Unanimously Calling for Immediate Ceasefire & Peaceful Resolution Between Israel & Iran

In a powerful display of global unity and humanitarian urgency, We Care for Humanity (WCH) successfully convened its Emergency Online Peace Forum, drawing a distinguished assembly of international leaders, WCH members, and peace advocates from across the globe. The forum delivered a resounding, unified demand for an immediate ceasefire and peaceful resolution between Israel and Iran, echoing a collective resolve to prioritize human life over conflict.

The forum, initiated by Queen Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura, Founder of We Care for Humanity (WCH), with assistance from Joseph Rivera, WCH Country Director in Qatar, saw impassioned pleas and actionable insights from a diverse roster of speakers, all committed to ending the cycle of violence.

Opening the forum, Queen Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura, the Convenor, delivered a compelling address that set the tone for the urgent dialogue. "We gather not just for a meeting, but for a critical intervention, to unite our powerful voices in an unwavering demand for an immediate ceasefire and peaceful resolution between Israel and Iran," Queen Maria declared. She lamented the current state of the world, "as if our world has not been beaten enough by the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine, South Sudan, and the recent devastation in Gaza." Emphasizing the dire threat of nuclear weapons, she challenged the global community: "Must we forever be divided in the name of our countries, or can we finally work together as one humanity, one world? If we, as citizens of the world, do not take action and collectively intervene, we risk finding ourselves facing irreversible consequences."

Joseph Rivera, WCH Country Director for Qatar and Assistant Convener, spoke passionately on behalf of migrant workers, asserting that war "exacerbates economic instability, disrupts global livelihoods, and accelerates the climate crisis." He appealed to world leaders to "prioritize diplomacy over devastation," highlighting that "the stakes are very very high" and urging humanity to "save the world for future generations."

Arteaga expressed concern that many governments are not interested in dialogues or peace efforts, asserting that citizens must therefore act and be more demanding with their governments regarding peace initiatives, especially in light of current conflicts in regions like Gaza, Iran, Israel, Ukraine, and Russia. She urged the "big powers" of the world to be more confident in their ability to achieve peace and to commit to "real decision" and actions, beyond just words, to achieve universal peace.
