In the morning we had a moment to present the Youth for a United World, explaining what the United World Week is and its history, we reflected together on the theme “A Path to Peace” and where we should satrt to build it. Ecumenism and intercultural experiences made all understand the extent to which and how we can contribute to universal brotherhood.
