This proposal builds on a simple but powerful idea: that **gardens can become living spaces for peace**, where culture, spirituality, and conversation meet — and where people can experience peace not as abstraction, but as something embodied, local, and shared.
> A Living Ecology of Spiritual Dialogue, Sound, and Place
Rooted in Molde — the City of Roses — and led in collaboration with Inger-Mette Stenseth, this initiative connects a growing international network of Peace Gardens into a **coherent cultural and digital ecosystem**.
The project is made o=up of the following elements: 1. A Living Library of Peace Traditions 1. Peace Garden Radio: Podcast + Live Radio 1. Peace Garden Guide: The Geolocated Podcatcher 1. Peace Garden Walk in Every City 1. Gifting Peace (getting involved) 1. Cultural Memory 1. Festival Rhythm 1. Next Step
At its heart is a collaboration between: * Thomas (peace and comparative religion) * Inger-Mette (Molde cultural base and studio) * Positive Press (Dana) * Hitchhikers.earth (David Bovill) * The wider Peace Garden network
