The art of One Less Gun is about choosing to build a future that respects both the power of the weapon and the need for peace. It’s a chance to be part of a movement that uses strength to create, not destroy, and to leave behind a legacy that will stand as long as humanity itself.

‘Kalashnikov’s Dream; Wars & Why They Exist’.

‘KALASHNIKOV’S DREAM; WARS & WHY THEY EXIST’, AN EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM RELEASED IN CONCERT WITH THE FILM AK-47 KALASHNIKOV’S DREAM.

At the heart of Kalashnikov’s Dream; Wars & Why They Exist is the belief that education fosters empathy, critical thinking, and meaningful discussion about global issues. The accompanying Educational Toolkit engages students in exploring the human stories behind gun violence and war, offering an interactive discussion on the lives of three young people in conflict zones.
By combining education with creativity, Kalashnikov’s Dream empowers students to connect global challenges with personal responsibility. It inspires a generation to not only understand the complexities of war but also to envision and contribute to solutions for lasting peace
