## Why We Do This?
The Day of Peace is a reminder that people everywhere should be able to live in respect and harmony. Unfortunately, this is not the case for everyone, and there are endless places on our earth where people live in fear for their lives. With creativity, we can connect, give a bit of hope, and show empathy for those in need.
This contest is our way to celebrate peace and invite you to make something with heart.
## 🌼 What Can You Create? Some ideas, but feel free to do your own:
# 🌍 Be Responsible ♻️ If you can, please use natural or recycled materials. We want to think more about our planet and also encourage you to do so. Every day, so much waste is created, but we can turn it into something new and be a good example for others around us. In DIYHub, we love it when you use things like bottles, old boxes, natural pieces, broken things and more to convert them into something new. These projects get more love and points, because they care for nature too. Thank you for helping both peace and nature!
