Mika Vanhanen – Ambassador of Knowledge, Peace builder and Founder of Peace Circle® inspires Neil Hawkes during this heartfelt conversation.
Mika Vanhanen is a Finnish educator, peace builder and leader in human-centred transition work. For over 30 years, he's worked across schools, municipalities, civil society, business and global networks to understand how real change happens — and why it so often fails. In 2000,Mika founded ENO – Environment Online, which grew into a global school network of 10,000 schools in 157 countries and helped mobilise the planting of more than 30 million trees.
Today, Mika continues his mission through Peace Circle®, a model that turns values into visible action by connecting nature, community and learning. This work has led to Peace Circle® parks, citywide partnerships and school-based practices in multiple countries, with a vision to reach 100 countries by 2030.
The Peace Circle® model led Mika to a wider principle he calls Circular Humanity:
when people move together in values, understanding and action, transitions become culture.
The Podcast ends with a beautiful song, Peace grows in you, which Mika has just released and can be downloaded from Spotify.
