In a world longing for bridges where walls once stood, a new chapter unfolds—one written not in ink but in the golden threads of global unity and compassion. The Marine Foundation, guided by its founding ethos of peace through innovation, is proud to announce its official registration of its mission in Benin, West Africa. This milestone is not merely administrative—it is a beacon of purpose and the beginning of a journey poised to reshape lives, uplift nations, and illuminate the soul of Africa through partnership, dignity, and progress.

In honor of this great beginning, the Marine Foundation welcomes the Universal Peace Federation (UPF) at Japan’s Foreign Correspondents’ Club. This historic gesture celebrates a convergence of missions—one rooted in spiritual diplomacy and the other in humanitarian design—both destined to awaken hope in regions that have long awaited the touch of holistic development and international support.

The Universal Peace Federation, an NGO in Special Consultative Status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations, carries a distinguished legacy of peacebuilding and global cooperation. Its presence in this moment of celebration highlights a sacred alignment of vision between the two institutions. It also recognizes the quiet yet powerful efforts of individuals whose lives have been dedicated to intercontinental friendship and the empowerment of Africa.

Among these torchbearers is Mrs. Annerose Adams, an esteemed representative of UPF-UK and a lifelong advocate of unity across nations. Her representation through the United Kingdom’s chapter of UPF, found at www.uk.upf.org, echoes the commitment of her brothers and sisters in Japan who have long extended their hearts to Africa. For many years, Mrs. Adams and the Aratani family—Mr. Mrs. Aratani of Japan has pioneered developmental initiatives in Benin and its neighboring countries under the banner of Bien-Être Global International. Their tireless dedication has created an enduring bridge of friendship and development between the land of the rising sun and the heart of the African continent.

It is also with deep gratitude that the Marine Foundation acknowledges Mr. Serge Gueli, a key actor and the soul of this movement. Now stationed in Benin, Mr. Gueli initiated and facilitated the historic April 21, 2025, meeting between the Marine Foundation and the UPF. His efforts allowed two great networks to meet in the spirit of mutual respect and purposeful dialogue, marking a new era of collaborative strategy for Africa’s advancement, beginning with Benin and expanding to the hopeful lands of Togo.

Marine Foundation Chairman Tomeo Motto RDG-Nakamura recognizes the divine timing of this unfolding. “When the seeds of peace are planted in the fertile soil of cooperation, a future of abundance can bloom,” he shares. “The presence of UPF alongside us as we take root in Benin signifies a sacred trust between nations and ideologies. This moment will be a foundation for peace, education, and sustainable development.”

Through its Japan-Africa corridors of cooperation, the Marine Foundation envisions a network of empowerment that spans continents, bringing education, medical innovation, clean infrastructure, and cultural exchange to the forefront of Africa’s rena. The registration in Benin marks a legal establishment and a spiritual anchoring, supported by people who see beyond borders and work beyond titles.

With the combined strength of the Marine Foundation’s model and the diplomatic wisdom of the UPF, a symphony of progress is set to rise in Africa. This partnership is a call to those who dream, build, and believe that the dignity of every child, mother, and nation is worth fighting for—not through war, but through love, education, and enlightened policy.

As the Marine Foundation sets its roots in Benin with the help of Serge Gueli and the enduring spirits of Mrs. Adams and the Aratani family, Japan and Africa are drawn closer than ever before. A promise is being kept. A circle is being completed. And a new page in the global story is being written, one where unity is not just a dream, but a plan in motion.

Let this moment be remembered—not as an end, but as a great beginning.

As the Marine Foundation establishes its noble presence in Benin, a country with immense cultural wealth and human potential, a strong and visionary administrative structure has been put in place to carry out its mission. This structure serves not only to organize leadership within Benin but also acts as a replicable template for all other nations where the Marine Foundation is active, reflecting the Foundation’s holistic approach to national development.

At the heart of this organizational body are individuals committed to service—leaders whose purpose aligns with the Foundation’s universal values of education, health, peace, and sustainability.

At the heart of the Marine Foundation’s global mission lies a transformative administrative model—one designed not just for functionality, but for nation-wide elevation. This structure, currently being implemented in Benin, stands as a replicable and adaptable blueprint for all countries where the Foundation seeks to plant the seeds of peace, progress, and prosperity.

Rather than a mere bureaucratic outline, this model is a living framework of leadership, designed to mobilize national talent, empower local communities, and deliver measurable, sustainable impact. Every role within this structure has a purpose, and every purpose aligns with the Foundation’s global vision of human development, dignity, and international cooperation.

This is the standardized model across all Marine Foundation nations, and it forms the operational spine for the execution of strategic flagship projects, carefully designed to uplift key sectors of society:

MICC – Marine International Communication Centers

Centers for diplomacy, education, and dialogue. These facilities include conference halls, computer labs, and learning spaces that serve as bridges between local populations and the global community.

CEM – Centers for Excellence in Medicine

Advanced medical institutions equipped with modern technology, telemedicine access, and international expertise—bringing world-class healthcare directly into underserved regions.

WEDH – Women’s Empowerment and Development Hubs

Hubs dedicated to training, microfinance, mentorship, and legal support for women. These centers are safe havens and platforms for women to build independence and lead community transformation.

EAS – Educational Advancement Schools

Innovative learning environments focused on creative thinking, STEM education, multilingual literacy, and life skills. These schools empower youth to lead with wisdom and vision.

Global Festivals and Cultural Exchange Programs

Celebrations of culture that foster national pride, artistic expression, and international friendship. These events help preserve heritage while opening the door to global appreciation and unity.

Sports and Youth Empowerment Arenas

Green Infrastructure and Clean Water Initiatives

Projects aimed at building resilient infrastructure with low environmental impact. Includes water purification, eco-villages, sustainable energy solutions, and smart city designs.

The strength of this model lies in its balance between global coordination and local autonomy. Each nation’s administrative team—led by passionate, qualified citizens—is given the authority and tools to tailor the Foundation’s projects to the unique cultural, economic, and social context of their country. This approach ensures sustainability, relevance, and dignity in implementation.

The blueprint doesn’t impose—it partners. It doesn’t instruct—it invites collaboration.

In Benin, this framework is already taking shape. From the office of the President to the grassroots efforts in rural communities, each director, advisor, and department leader is aligned in vision. Through education, health, culture, environment, and gender equity, they are building a model that will inspire neighboring nations such as Togo and extend across the continent like a sunrise of possibility.

This model is not just about administration—it is about legacy. It is about building nations from within, guided by wisdom, compassion, and collective intelligence. It is about giving every child the right to dream, every woman the right to lead, and every community the right to thrive.

The Marine Foundation is not simply expanding into new territories—it is elevating the purpose of leadership, reimagining the role of development, and building a family of nations bound by respect, peace, and a shared destiny.

Benin is just the beginning.

Let this framework be the lighthouse for every country yearning to rise—Africa and beyond.
