Celebrating 20 Years of the Universal Peace Federation UK
Gala Dinner – Kensington Hilton, London
15 November 2025
The Universal Peace Federation UK (UPF-UK) marked a historic milestone with its 20th Anniversary Charity Gala Dinner, held at the Kensington Hilton in London. The event gathered Ambassadors for Peace, community leaders, partners, and long-standing supporters to celebrate two decades of UPF’s contribution to peacebuilding, interfaith harmony, sustainable development, youth leadership, and women’s empowerment across the UK and globally.
The evening highlighted UPF-UK’s growth since its founding and its mission to promote “One Family of Humanity Under God.” Inspiring reflections were shared by Dr Mike
Balcomb, Bogdan Pammer, and Robin Marsh, who each spoke about UPF’s evolution over the past twenty years, including its interfaith initiatives, community service projects, and global peace activities.
A special awards segment honoured individuals whose dedication has strengthened the Ambassadors for Peace network and advanced UPF-UK’s charitable work. Their contributions reflect the spirit of UPF’s founders, Dr Hak Ja Han Moon and Rev. Dr Sun Myung Moon, who envisioned a global movement committed to moral leadership, cooperation, and service.
To support the expansion of UPF-UK’s peace initiatives, the programme featured a vibrant auction and raffle, helping to raise funds for upcoming interfaith programmes, youth projects, and community events.
The Gala Dinner was not only a celebration of UPF-UK’s achievements but a reaffirmation of its commitment to interdependence, mutual prosperity, and universal values—the guiding principles that will shape the next chapter of UPF-UK’s mission.
