Tourism and peace are much more connected than most people realize. Every trip has the potential to be more than just a stamp in a passport or a post on social media, it can be a direct act of peacebuilding. When young people step outside of their comfort zones and choose to engage with local communities rather than overlook them, we begin to see ourselves not only as visitors but as future peacekeepers. Sustainable travel allows us to recognize the power of local voices, to understand how deeply community well-being is tied to global peace, and to realize that education doesn’t just happen in classrooms. This is the way our generation can educate ourselves differently, carrying forward the responsibility to live as global citizens and empower others to do the same. I began to understand this on a personal level during the past three years of my undergraduate journey, where every trip and encounter brought me closer to becoming a peacekeeper.
