EMMA for Peace, or the Euro Mediterranean Music Academy, is a network of music institutions in the Middle East and the Mediterranean region.[1]

Activities

EMMA for Peace was founded by young cultural entrepreneur Paolo Petrocelli.[2] EMMA for Peace also promotes music as a tool for diplomacy through collaborations with international institutional partners such as the UN organizations (particularly UNICEF and the UNHCR) and the World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates.[3] EMMA also raises awareness in individual partner countries with the support of national institutions, as well as organizing concerts at major venues and festivals throughout the region.[4]
