Eight decades after World War II, the shadow of history still lingers. Are we bound by the past, or can we shape a more peaceful future? CGTN’s new series The Power of Ideas: The Path to Peace takes viewers on a global journey into the roots of conflict and the quest for harmony.
Launching on August 19, this special program invites historians, activists, and changemakers to delve into the origins of strife—from major wars to modern tensions—and spotlight real-world strategies for lasting peace. Across each episode, stories unfold of communities rebuilding trust, innovators harnessing technology for dialogue, and grassroots movements bridging divides.
By blending archival footage with forward-looking conversations, the series breaks down complex challenges—nuclear risks, climate-induced crises, cultural clashes—into compelling narratives. Data-driven insights help us understand how past lessons can fuel new approaches: digital diplomacy, citizen-led initiatives, and cross-border partnerships.
For young global citizens, business and tech enthusiasts, thought leaders, sports and entertainment fans, and adventure seekers alike, The Power of Ideas offers fresh perspectives on what peace could look like in the 21st century. Hit play and hear what the guests have to say.
