Launched in 2020, the HandaHarmony Sing for Hope Global Youth Initiative leverages youth creativity to drive the Global Goals by 2030, in alignment with The United Nations Decade of Action. This program is made possible by a transformational 10-year grant to Sing for Hope by The International Foundation for Arts and Culture (Dr. Haruhisa Handa, Sing for Hope Global Patron). HandaHarmony’s flagship annual event is The United Nations High-Level Political Forum, a destination event for our students and an international symbol of youth arts empowerment. In addition to the UN HLPF, HandaHarmony features additional UN creative service learning events in partnership with UN Women, UNICEF House, etc.
"Singing at the United Nations was an experience of a lifetime. Today, I felt proud to stand among these great women who are speaking up to make the world a better place for me. It was an honor to contribute my voice!"
"The children’s voices came at just the right moment and gave us the hope and inspiration to press forward."
