The Know Your World Initiative was conceived, nurtured and groomed to have the potential to have a huge impact not just in Kenya but also across the globe. With the ambition to bring up a more integrated and more stable world, the Initiative puts into practice cultural and public diplomacy elements. This is achieved through education, the arts and creating awareness in the society about the need t
o think of themselves as global citizens. The Centre for International Affairs’, Know Your World Initiative - is a program that works to advance the global peace and security agenda through education and the promotion of people to people connections. We believe that for the world to experience sustainable peace and security, there ought to be a resolve to practice tolerance, empathy, understanding across cultures, races, continents, heritages, nationalities and citizenships. With focus on the young generation that has a better opportunity to embrace these values given the up-scaled globalization in our time, the program seeks to find innovative ways to adapt to the 21st century challenges.
