VOLUNTEERS' VOICES

​Nidhi Chouhan: Peace in Practice

“For me, peace isn’t just a concept, it’s a lived experience. I’m honoured to grow alongside this community and to play a part in fostering peace, one step at a time.”

Meet Nidhi Chouhan, a long-standing Peace Partners volunteer and a passionate advocate for practical peace. Based in West London, Nidhi brings a thoughtful blend of creativity, compassion, and strategic clarity to her work and volunteering.
​
Currently working as an Instructional Designer, Nidhi combines her expertise in learning strategy, content design, and human-centred thinking to develop engaging educational experiences, often shaped by her strong belief in empathy and lifelong learning. Her work bridges the worlds of corporate learning and humanitarian values, with a growing interest in Neurodidactics (brain-based learning). After joining as Charity Secretary in 2022, Nidhi will shortly be transitioning to an advisory role, continuing her journey with the team in a new capacity.

Her connection to Peace Partners is rooted in her enduring appreciation for the message of peace shared by peace educator Prem Rawat. Over the years, this message has become a compass in both her personal and professional life, offering strength, clarity, and a reminder of the deeper purpose behind volunteering: “As a long-time admirer of Prem Rawat’s message, I’m grateful to support Peace Partners initiatives through creative and strategic roles. His words of peace have guided me through life’s challenges and inspired me to share peace in simple, meaningful ways.”

Nidhi continues to support Peace Partners in various behind-the-scenes capacities, including content creation and media planning. Outside of her work and volunteering, Nidhi is deeply moved by classical Indian music and timeless literature. Her bookshelf features favourites like Hear Yourself by Prem Rawat, The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran, and Thus Spake Bhisma by M.M. Thakur, books that mirror her own journey toward inner growth and conscious living.

We are delighted to have Nidhi as part of the Peace Partners team, and look forward to continuing our shared journey of peace and purpose!
