PROMOTING PEACE, INCLUSION AND SUSTAINABILITY
A Message That Crosses Borders
Across the world, the Gardens of Peace stand as symbols of encounter between cultures and religions.
They are places where differences are overcome, experiences are shared and relationships of mutual trust are built.
Since 2019, UNESCO has celebrated 26 November as the World Olive Tree Day, recognising in this tree an emblem of wisdom, balance and harmony.
The Vision of Francesco Serafini
It is on this very principle that the vision of Francesco Serafini, creator and promoter of The Garden of Peace, was born.
His commitment renews and amplifies the message of the olive tree: fostering a dialogue that does not stop at national borders but embraces the diversity of territories and continents.
An invitation to build — through nature — a peace that is concrete, shared and universal.
Education for Peace
Wherever it takes root, the Garden of Peace becomes a space for encounter and learning.
Through the care of the olive trees, communities discover the value of cooperation, respect and sharing.
These places foster peace, responsibility and environmental awareness, offering common ground where differences become dialogue.
Biodiversity and the Future
The Garden of Peace renews UNESCO’s message by promoting a dialogue that knows no borders, embracing the diversity of territories and continents in a shared commitment to peace with the Earth and to the biodiversity of the future.

A Growing Legacy
Every Garden of Peace is a seed of continuity, an inheritance that renews itself over time.
Through care, education and collective participation, it becomes a place where not only the soil is cultivated, but also the awareness of living together.
Community and Participation
The Gardens of Peace help build stronger and more cohesive communities.
They become gathering places — spaces for dialogue and collaboration — where a sense of belonging and environmental responsibility can grow.
The shared care of the olive trees transforms each garden into a true “social laboratory,” capable of generating pride, identity and harmony among people and with nature.
