Projekt World Kitchen–World Peace jako odpowiedź pastoralno-misyjna na potrzeby młodych dorosłych na Tajwanie
The World Kitchen– World Peace Project as a Pastoral and Missionary Response to the Needs of Young Adults in Taiwan

Summary/Abstract: The work of a missionary requires reflection on activities aimed at young adults and the search for forms of support that meet their needs. Research findings indicate that media coverage of global crises significantly undermines the mental well-being of young adults who need to pursue personal values. Analyses show that activities that support the realization of prosocial, educational, and spiritual values are most effective in improving the mental well-being of young adults. In response to these needs, the World Kitchen-World Peace project was developed, encompassing three components: the shared preparation of meals from a specific cultural background, storytelling about the socio-political-climate crisis, and the practice of loving-kindness meditation. Analysis of the project participants’ responses revealed their high level of engagement and satisfaction with the project from a somatosensory, cultural, and spiritual perspective. They indicated the need for similar initiatives to be organized more frequently.
