Our Foundation
Our Foundation
Peace Day San Francisco – Civic Center Plaza
Our World Our Voices (OWOV) evolves from the original One World One Voice peace and sustainability initiatives — created to bring diverse leaders and their perspectives into meaningful dialogue around shared global concerns.
We now expand this foundation in the AI era while preserving its core purpose: convening voices that clarify complexity and strengthen informed dialogue across sectors and communities.
The acronym OWOV remains a bridge between origin and future — continuity with expanded focus.

The OWOV Commitment
Our World Our Voices (OWOV) is a Civil Society Organization (CSO) committed to fostering awareness and dialogue around the systems shaping the wellbeing of humanity and the planet.
Its purpose is to gather like-minded individuals who recognize the need to shift from conventional patterns of production and consumption toward sustainable practices that support the health of people, communities, and Earth.
Rather than operating through constant events, OWOV focuses on building an informed community. Through articles, reflections, and occasional dialogues, the platform keeps communication alive and encourages thoughtful engagement around environmental responsibility and societal wellbeing.
As part of this work, OWOV is convening a NGO CSW70 Parallel Virtual Event during the 70th session of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW).
The NGO Committee on the Status of Women (NGO CSW) is a global network of civil society organizations that supports and complements the work of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, one of the principal UN bodies dedicated to advancing gender equality and the empowerment of women.
Through this platform, OWOV contributes to the international dialogue by convening the session:
“Impacts of Consumerism on Women’s Health in the AI Era.”
The goal is to bring attention to the connections between consumer systems, environmental conditions, and the wellbeing of women, families, and communities worldwide.
Healthy Families, Happy Life!
