About Us

The Commonwealth Youth Peace Ambassadors Network (CYPAN) aims at bringing together young people from across the Commonwealth to upscale and optimise grassroots, national, regional and pan-Commonwealth efforts to promote peace, respect & understanding and prevent violent extremism. These young people range from community-level and policy-level peace advocates to creatives. CYPAN aims at fostering collaboration between members and creates space for policy advocacy as it relates to peace.
