Grades 4-6 of the ecological school GRÜNER CAMPUS MALCHOW offer an enthusiastic welcome to the international Peace Run Team.

The team members introduce the message of the Peace Run and their respective nationalities in a fun way.

The kids enacting the movements of the Peace Run and World Harmony Run Song - running in place, raising an arm to hold the torch and letting the sun radiate from their hearts in a big arm circle.

Each kid has an opportunity to touch or hold the torch and put a wish for peace into it which we will carry with us.

... a remaining part of the Berlin Wall which formerly separated East and West and now has been transformed into the "longest open air gallery in the world" and a symbol of hope.

District Councillor Benjamin Fritz welcomes the Peace Torch and the runners in front of the City Hall of Berlin Mitte.

Note: we normally ask to please use the Peace Run logo only as a whole! But we sincerely appreciate the enthusiastic support of the Optimistic Runners!
Thank you Berlin - and see you again!
