Lisbon, Portugal—Thirty-five youth and children and 10 adults took part in a Peace Road event that led them to the Atlantic Ocean.
The Portuguese chapters of UPF and its affiliated organization Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU) organized the event on August 2, 2019, in the middle of a summer workshop for university students and high school pupils.
The participants followed a route in the southern part of the country between the workshop site and the ocean.
It was a time of great joy, especially for the younger participants, who sang various songs as they walked. The event drew the attention of many people who were using the road, either by foot or by car.
