Poets of the Planet
POP News : The Worldwide Chain of Poems for Peace
At the heart of our mission, Poets of the Planet is actively committed to promoting peace through words and creativity.
Our flagship initiative, The Worldwide Chain of Poems for Peace, embodies our determination to use poetry as a powerful instrument for global harmony. Explore our daily commitment to peace through words on our Facebook page. The recent tragic events in Israel and the Gaza Strip have stirred deep emotions among our poets. Several of them have responded by writing poems, which we publish in their original languages. It’s a powerful expression of solidarity that we invite you to join. Learn more about.
A Birth Note
We are happy to announce the birth of a new international movement of poets : Poets of the Planet (POP).
We want to develop a friendly movement, obviously not a bureaucratic or pyramidal organisation but a horizontal network, a movement respecting equality in difference, unity in diversity. We believe in the necessity of such an international union of poets. Especially now.
This international community of poets will be keen to promote poetic creation, in a spirit of openness and sharing with the widest audience, particularly among young people. We intend to give people the opportunity to read, see and hear the words of poets from all over the globe.
Our planet is on fire. Humanity is threatened with self-destruction by the violence of war and the ravages of climate change. We are all part of planet Earth and we know that our fate is linked. We all have an urgent need for poetry, this word of truth and beauty, singular and common, courageous and free, sensitive and imaginative.
We need poetry because we are not robots, but human beings. We can not be indifferent. We need poetry to express our present and imagine a better future together, in peace and freedom for individuals and peoples.
