General Information

Vox Pacis, and NGO was formed in Stockholm 2006. The aim is to musically, artistically, theatrically, inter-culturally, and through interfaith dialogue work towards peace and reconciliation in the world.

Vox Pacis is a non-religious, non-political organization.

Our main partners: Swedish Church, international, College of Music in Piteå & Uppsala. 

Mission and Objectives

Vox Pacis goals are peace work, conflict solving, musical and artistic inspiration. By listening to and participating in different traditions of music-cultural expression, participants and audiences have the possibility to discover for themselves that there is so much more uniting us than differs us apart. For example, there is a great similarity between the Sami jojk and Tibetan throst singing, just like there are lots of resemblances between the early Vedic and Greogorian songs and between the Arabic desert songs and some Jewish religious music.

The most holy aspects with each culture have undoubtedly a sphere of connecting with other cultures and religions. By sharing this musical experience all at the same time, in the same place, we belive that fruitful conditions are created for a bigger understandning and better relationship between different cultures and religions.

We belive that through singing, music and theatre it is possible to find new ways toward peace and harmony.

Main Projects / Activities

Vox Pacis works with:

- Peace and multicultural concerts - Youth Musical - Drama - Concert shows - Workshops - Exhibitions - Guest shows - Networking - Research.

Vox Pacis has so far created hundreds of theatrical concerts with artists from fifteen different cultures, representing all world religions: Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism – with elements of Same jojk, Tibetan throat song, Sufi desert blues, Roma freedom singing and Chines opera singing and folksongs.
