Partner With Us

UNESCO Body & Mind Wellness Club (UNESCO BMW), with its Partners, has been building strong alliances in our home base of Washington, DC, and in the world at large since 2010. As a result, we have become a cultural force for celebrating diversity, contributing to current issues and events, engaging policymakers, and working with all stakeholders to further Partner the understanding of peace, acceptance, and tolerance. We continually strive to make the culture of peace a commodity of everyday life through the ideals of UNESCO (Education, Science, Culture, and Communication).

Whether it is in-kind or funded, we are currently seeking support for our programming through partnerships and sponsorships from values-aligned organizations.

Distinguished speakers enlighten their audience to the unique perspective of other societies, their accomplishments and challenges in the 21st century, thus serving as the medium through which conversations may begin. The Speaker Series events include panel discussions on social issues and world events to uplift cultural, educational and inner peace awareness.
