NPP plan to tour an exhibition of paintings and images highlighting major themes of peace from Turkey and raise the awareness level between Turkey and the UK, the EU, the USA and the wider world.
This exhibition aims to create a positve profile for Turkey's EU relationship and highlight the country in readiness for her to become the EU Cultural capital in 2010.
Our inspirations include:
- the 7 peaceful colours of the rainbow which appeared in the skies above Mount Ararat in present day Eastern Turkey along with the dove and olive branch representing universal symbols of peace
- the Mevlevi movement founded in Konya gives Turkey a tailor-made peace slogan for her tourism industry: Come, come who ever you are, however you are, just come.
- Ataturk founded the secular democratic Republic of Turkey 1923 consisting of 7 internal regions and touched by 7 bordering countries: Greece, Bulgaria, Armenia, Georgia, Iran, Iraq and Syria. He left us all with a standard bearer quote applicable for all peace minded nations throughout the world: Peace at home, peace in the world.

Ataturk:
“Freedom consists of man’s ability to do what he thinks and desires without any influence or intervention by others. This is the broadest definition of the concept. Mankind has never attained liberty to this extent and never will because as is known, men are creations of nature and nature itself is not absolutely free either; it is subject to universal laws.”
