The "Global Tour for Peace" was a European tour of international club friendlies organised by two Ukrainian football clubs whose football league had to cease due to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[1][2] The aim of the tour was to raise funds to provide aid for people in Ukraine affected by the Russian invasion.[3][4] The Ukrainian teams involved with the tour were Dynamo Kyiv and Shakhtar Donetsk, the two most successful teams coming out the Ukrainian Premier League, as well as the Ukraine national football team who played friendlies in preparation for their World Cup qualification games in June 2022.

The tour can be split into two phases. The first phase was a reaction to the Russian invasion, raising money for refugees, and the need to keep the Ukraine national team players match fit for the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. The second phase is of friendlies being used to raise money while the teams are preparing for the resumption of the Ukrainian Premier League.

The Dynamo Kyiv tour played with the name "Tour for Peace in Ukraine", with each match playing under one of the following titles, "Match for Peace! Stop the War!" and "Hand in Hand for Peace", while the Shakhtar Donetsk tour was played under the name "Shakhtar Global Tour for Peace".

In total 32 games were played during the tour against 30 different clubs. Clubs from 16 different countries and two different continents took part in the tour, with over 250,000 fans attending the games, and over €1million raised in confirmed donations, with the total possibly being much higher due to 15 clubs yet to release the figures of their own fundraisers. Over 100 goals were scored during the friendlies. These 104 goals came from 72 different players, who were from 26 different countries, and four different continents. The tour saw fans from many different nationalities coming together to show support for Ukraine in the wake of the invasion, and showing condemnation for Russia's actions.
