The Peace Club believes that every small action can make a significant impact. We invite you to join us and contribute to a more peaceful world, one step at a time. By working together, we can create positive change and be a force for good in our communities and beyond. So, why not take that first step with us today and become a part of something meaningful?

At The Peace Club, we aim to help individuals discover their own inner peace and share it with others in their community. We believe that inner peace can inspire people to spread love, kindness, and compassion, leading to a more peaceful society. Our events and activities focus on promoting peace, encouraging people to think deeply about the concept of peace, and taking action towards creating a more peaceful world.

Our Peace Song

The Soundtrack of Peace: Original Songs by University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic Students for The Peace Club Project

The Peace Club project at the University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic features student-written songs with thought-provoking lyrics. "Chaos and Peace" is one such song, expressing the tension between the desire for chaos and the need for peace. The lyrics touch on a range of topics, from the fear of war to the beauty of the stars, from protests and political turmoil to the warmth of a loving relationship. Despite the chaos and uncertainty of the world, the song ends on a hopeful note, emphasizing the importance of love and hope in navigating life's challenges.

Peace Comes With It By Bet

The songwriter expresses fear of war, crashes, and impending disaster, but finds solace with their loved one. Despite chaos and protests, they want to be with their partner and embrace the chaos that comes with their peace. The song celebrates the power of love and hope in times of uncertainty and fear.

Peace Lily By Edmon

This song speaks to the need for change, for breaking down barriers, and for finding peace in a world that's been torn apart. The peace lily serves as a symbol of hope, a reminder that there's still a chance for things to get better, and that we can make a difference if we try. Let's work together to move the stones, break the chains, and clear the bones, and create a space where peace can thrive.
