“All people, all nations, must seriously work for peace on this Earth.” – Baba Credo Mutwa
On 21 September 2025, the world pauses to celebrate World Peace Day—a moment to unite across differences, honor our shared humanity, and dream of a future rooted in peace.
This year, Midreshet Africa invites you to join us in making history at Naledi Africa, Hennop’s River Valley, Centurion—a sacred heritage site of the late Baba Credo Mutwa. Here, blessed by the ancestors and embraced by nature, we will gather in spirit, song, and dialogue to call forth healing and reconciliation.
What is the World Peace Day Gathering?
World Peace Day, celebrated every year on the equinox, is a global call for healing—in our homes, communities, and nations.
Our 2025 gathering will be a day-long celebration of culture, spirituality, and creativity, weaving together traditions from around the world. Together, we will:
Enjoy live music & DJs – Pops Mohamed, DJ Lion GGK, Yehoo Shalem & more
️ Listen to voices from Israel & Palestine – Kevin Bloom and special guests (via Zoom)
Experience rituals & blessings – Interfaith prayers, ancestral ceremonies, Hebrew priestly blessing & ordination
Engage in workshops & circles – Environmental justice, spoken word, poetry, and youth voices
Walk in nature – Healing spaces for reflection and connection
Why Here? Why Now?
South Africa, with its legacy of struggle and resilience, is a symbol of unity beyond division. In a world torn apart by war, inequality, and ecological crisis, we feel the urgent need to create spaces of spiritual gathering, art, and dialogue—where global voices and local hearts meet in a circle of hope.
By choosing Naledi Africa, a land blessed by the ancestors and envisioned by Baba Credo Mutwa, we root our gathering in heritage, truth, and healing.
