Oslo – City of Peace- Past, Present and Future<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

We begin at\u00a0Eidsvolls Plass<\/strong>, outside the\u00a0Norwegian Parliament<\/strong>, where Norway\u2019s peaceful political journey began. Walking along\u00a0Karl Johans gate<\/strong>, we pass the\u00a0University of Oslo<\/strong>, where the first Nobel Peace Prizes were awarded in the early 20th century.<\/p>\n

Continuing to the\u00a0Royal Palace<\/strong>, we discuss the role of the monarchy during WWII and today\u2019s diplomatic legacy, before arriving at the\u00a0Nobel Institute<\/strong>, where the Peace Prize laureates are still chosen.<\/p>\n

We then descend \u2013 literally and metaphorically \u2013 into history, with a guided visit to a\u00a0WWII bunker<\/strong>\u00a0under\u00a0Oslo Handelsgymnasium<\/strong>, a stark reminder of Norway\u2019s wartime struggles and the high cost of peace.<\/p>\n

Back above ground, we walk through\u00a0Victoria Terrasse<\/strong>, a site once used by the Gestapo, now transformed into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs \u2013 a powerful symbol of change.<\/p>\n

Finally, we pass monuments to Kings\u00a0Haakon VII<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Olav V<\/strong>, who embody the values of resilience, unity, and moral leadership. The tour concludes at the\u00a0Nobel Peace Center<\/strong>, where stories of global peace efforts come to life.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeace does not mean just putting an end to violence or war, but to all other factors that threaten peace, such as discrimination, inequality and poverty.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2014 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, Kailash Satyarthi<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
