Kathmandu: The Third Edition of the World Peace Program is set to take place in Lumbini and Ramgram from January 11 to 13, 2026. Organized by the Promised Land Foundation, the event carries a global call for peace aimed at shaping a prosperous future.
Around 10,000 participants, including UN cultural ambassadors, global business leaders, billionaires, scholars, artists, youth and community representatives from Nepal and abroad, are expected to attend.
