Culture of Peace

The SGI-USA is involved in non-sectarian, public awareness activities to promote the values of peace, culture and education. We work with other civil-society and non-governmental groups to develop youth programs, traveling exhibits, cultural events and symposia. The SGI is an active participant in the United Nations as a recognized non-governmental organization. SGI President Daisaku Ikeda has submitted a peace proposal to the United Nations each year since 1975, and these proposals have gradually come to gain increased notice and consideration among peace scholars and concerned individuals.


"A great human revolution in just a single individual will help achieve a change in the destiny of a nation and further, will enable a change in the destiny of all humankind."

- SGI President Daisaku Ikeda
