Green Kordofan is a UK registered charity that champions Education, Sport and Personal development for girls and boys aged 6 to 18.
We work with the thousands of people who have been forced to flee the civil war in Sudan and are now living in refugee camps in South Sudan. Most of our fundraising and campaigning takes place in the UK - but all of our projects are based in Yida Refugee camp, which is in Unity state, South Sudan.
OUR PEACE WALL- What does peace mean to you?
To mark Peace Day, we invite everyone to share one word or one short sentence describing what peace means to you. Simply send your message by WhatsApp, SMS or add your thoughts directly below. We will combine all the contributions into a shared Peace Wall that reflects our collective hope for a more peaceful world.

We run Thirty-Eight boys' and girls' football teams.
We give the children individual and social support around local issues like HIV, social equity, and conflict resolution
We offer literacy, numeracy, music, art, and personal development classes in our recently built classroom.

Peace in the world, to me, is choosing compassion over division, listening before judging, and remembering our shared humanity.
It’s easy to think of peace as an abstract idea, until you know someone who has lived without it. Then you understand that peace is being able to sleep without fear, to know your family is safe, to return home without wondering what will still be there. Working alongside people who have endured unimaginable loss has taught me that peace is deeply human. It is dignity. It is being heard. It is having the freedom to imagine a future beyond survival.
Peace means different things to different people, shaped by their experiences and what they’ve had to overcome. For many, it begins with the absence of violence or war- the simple but profound relief of not having to run, hide, or brace for danger. It’s the chance to live without fear, to sleep through the night without worry, and to let your guard down for the first time in years.
But peace is more than just the lack of conflict. It’s also about how we treat one another. It’s choosing kindness over cruelty, patience over anger, and understanding over judgment. It’s building communities where people can disagree without turning on each other, where differences don’t become divisions, and where everyone has the space to belong. In that sense, peace isn’t just something we hope for, it’s something we create, day by day, through the way we live with each other.
Peace = Strength + Love + Action + Solidarity + Caring + Fun 💥 🫱🫲 💫
Peace is the opposite of fear. The opposite of hunger. The opposite of poverty. The opposite of endless uncertainty
