Our nomination process has closed and we are now in the difficult process of selecting individuals who will receive Peace Medallions.

We are carefully evaluating Peacemaker Nominations for individuals who:

• Find peaceful solutions to violence, conflict, discrimination and injustice 
• Make a difference by working without any special recognition to create a culture of peace 
• Volunteer their time and work without any special resources to create a culture of peace 
• Enhance the lives of people in their community and around the world by creating peaceful environments

The selection committee is made up of community members and YMCA staff chosen to represent a variety of interests, experiences and ages.

Recipients are honoured with the Medallion at special Peace Ceremonies in November during YMCA World Peace Week at YMCAs across the Greater Toronto Area.
