"Für den Frieden der Welt" (For the peace of the world) was the Austrian representative at the Eurovision Song Contest 1994, performed in German by Petra Frey.

The song was performed twentieth on the night, following Greece's Costas Bigalis & The Sea Lovers with "To Trehandiri" and preceding Spain's Alejandro Abad with "Ella no es ella". At the close of voting, it had received 19 points, placing 17th in a field of 25.
