Abstract : Helping Brainz in association with AIESEC Delhi University conducted “International Cultural Congress for Peace” at ASTER Public School, Noida.
How it happened : 8/13/2014 was a day of experiment in Yedhu Krishna Menon’s life. I’m a social worker, I help people in my own way, or in a way which was shown by my mother ,I’m just a facilitator.
Helping Brainz works for women, children, rural development, healthcare and now spreading “international peace”, a weekend mission by us from 2012.
When my senior friend and, our project leader for rural development projects – Ashim Sir called me and discussed about the collaboration of the interns for a nation development and international peace programme, I didn’t any clue. However, Prince and Ishita helped me to make it a ‘programme’, I never knew that this programme can create new definitions in my life for humanity.

When the world is fighting each other to prove their domain power, thereby ending peace and popularizing negativity everywhere, we Helping Brainz are bravely offending such powers to spread positivity. As a mission one we started with International Cultural Congress for Peace, with 14 soldiers of peace from 4 different countries ( India, China, Equador and Kazakhstan ) volunteered for a noble mission of spreading peace.
Helping Brainz orchestrated a 1.5 hours experience sharing congress where volunteers from 4 different countries shared their culture, education, traditions, cuisines, government and their beliefs, wherein the audience comprised of children (dressed in white) and teachers of ASTER Public School, Noida.
The event started with presentations by ( in sequence ) :-
- Marshell on Chinese Education,
- Margaret on Chineese Culture,
- Doris and Peter on Paper Cuttings and Embrodiary Science of China,
- Peter Green’s ( from China ) Tai Ji Presentation,
- Introduction to Kazakshtan by Farisa,
- A Visit to Equador by Yaja,
- Galloen’s Chineese Class
Well, the event ended by a beautiful prayer by Margaret Wong, which really wet my eyes, music doesn’t have a language, however we understood the meaning of humanity and we all prayed for peace.
I’m overwhelmed by the co-operation showcased by the students, teachers and other staff members.
