Accomplishments


GPI and Dr. Paul were instrumental in helping bring 19 tribal factions together in Rwanda and Burundi to negotiate a settlement to the horrific genocide in those countries. In a Peace Rally, Dr. K.A. Paul brought 3 tribal leaders to the negotiating table.

GPI has acquired and is ready to begin flight with its own Boeing 747-SP aircraft known as Global Peace One. This new addition of GPI Aviation allows the organization to fly to any place on the earth in a matter of hours to meet human need. With 99 custom seats and over 76,000 pounds of cargo area, GPI is unique among the world's relief and humanitarian organizations. A seasoned team of pilots, mechanics, ground crew, security and advance teams are on staff and volunteer to support GPI Aviation.

Today over 52,000 widows on three continents are sponsored monthly by GPI as “Little Teresa's". These women, many of whom would have committed suicide rather than become “untouchables” in their culture, now have hope and a small stipend from $3 to $30 per month that helps sustain them. More than four million women worldwide have attended special meetings about becoming a Little Teresa and well over one million of these women have embraced becoming a Little Teresa and await funding for a stipend. These wonderful women who become Little Teresa's are immolating the life of good works and service of Mother Teresa.

GPI boasts one of the world's largest on-campus orphanages and adult training centers. Located outside of Hyderabad, India, this 200,000 square foot campus and its sister campus houses over 1,000 children. In addition, thousands of women are trained as Little Teresa's each year in this state of the art facility.

Dr. K.A. Paul and GPI have been involved in peace diplomacy on behalf of humanity in many of the world's most troubled places including China, Yugoslavia, Cuba, Pakistan, India, Iraq, and Burundi. In August of 1999, GPI and Dr. Paul along with then Kenyan President Daniel Moi hosted a rally for world peace in commemoration of the embassy bombing that took place one year earlier in Nairobi. Hundreds of African leaders attended the event and paid tribute to the innocent victims of the terrorist attack.

After the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the U.S., Dr. Paul and GPI planned and conducted the first-of-its-kind Global Peace Rally and International Day of Prayer. The worldwide event was held on November 3, 2001 in Nairobi, Kenya. American entertainer John Tesh performed in Lagos, Nigeria and GPI President, Dr. K.A. Paul delivered a message to an announced attendance of over 3 million persons gathered. In addition millions of people around the world witnessed the event on television as several African Presidents and Prime Ministers as well as leaders of all faiths joined the event. More than 30 networks worldwide carried the broadcast. With only one week's notice, Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee spearheaded an effort for GPI that garnered the support for this event from 48 of the U.S. Governors. Twenty-four State Governors issued proclamations supporting the International Day of Prayer. Over 430,000 letters and contacts were sent out for the event as some 1 million churches, mosques, and synagogues as well as other places of worship were included in the preparations for the event.

During his many Peace Rallies, Dr. K.A. Paul has inspired several hundred thousand families worldwide to become part of adopting children.

Most recently the GPI Embassy was opened at 110 Maryland Avenue N.E. - Suite 201 on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. Located next to the U.S. Supreme Court Building, the new Global Peace Embassy on capitol hill will be the “mission control" for operations in humanitarian aid and relief.

GPI has assembled one of the world's most impressive teams of Global Peace Ambassadors. From the former Prime Minister of India to former members of the United States Congress to Hollywood Producers...GPI now has dozens of individuals in place to help change the world. A partial listing of these ambassadors is included on the website.

The Hyderabad Charity City located on 1,110 beautiful acres in India now provides the prototype facility for multi—purpose humanitarian work. This work includes entrepreneurial activity in agriculture,vocational skill training, and the provision of clean drinking water. This model for Charity City will be replicated in dozens of countries around the world. Currently, GPI is planning clean water projects that will begin bringing clean drinking to over 1 billion people.

By using a positive message of love, hope, peace...Dr. K.A. Paul has united dozens of world leaders, clergy, and non-traditional leaders into vast grassroots networks that support GPI's humanitarian and peace efforts. GPI’s unique networks on 5 continents allow GPI to operate where many organizations cannot. In addition, the unique message and personal credibility of Dr. K.A. Paul combined with its humanitarian capacities allow GPI to transcend cultural, religious, ethnic, and geo-political barriers to bring relief to hurting people.

In a distinguished 20 year career Dr. K.A. Paul has traveled the world addressing millions of people in live rallies. Through his Peace Rallies, Dr. K.A. Paul has spoken to larger live audiences that virtually any world leader. The vast networks of Global Peace Initiative have touched 81 countries and directly contacted by rally or media more than 300 million of the world's most vulnerable citizens.
