We Want Peace (WWP) has a simple goal: To raise awareness on the fundamental principles of justice, equality and freedom for all worldwide. Kicking off the campaign, and in dedication to Southern Sudan’s historic referendum in 2011 which saw the country of Sudan split into two (Sudan and South Sudan), Emmanuel released what has become the worldwide music hit: ‘We Want Peace’. The up-tempo feel good classic brings a sense of appreciation and entertainment to the importance of peace and security.

Featuring strings by Peter Gabriel, the song, like the campaign, dedicates itself to the realization that peace is possible. Sadly, conflict is still rife in the region and the route to finding sustainable peace has been extremely testing with millions still being displaced and living as refugees. WWP Supporters include a variety of high profile individuals and organisations.
