P e a c e 1Day

May there be Peace One Day on this Earth

Over the years Peace One Day has delivered successful global campaigns that have touched millions of lives all over the world and instigated actions that promote reconciliation and peace-building through sports, dance, education, film, music, art and other areas.
Below is an overview of Peace One Day’s core campaigns. The theme for 2013 across all of these campaigns is: Who Will You Make Peace With?
Peace starts with individual action, and your actions will inspire others. So who will you make peace with? Who will you bring together on Peace Day, Saturday 21 September 2013?


INDIVIDUALS

Peace Day is about empowering individuals to make a difference. It is everyone’s legacy. If it isn’t everyone’s, it’s not going to work.
Through detailed analysis conducted with the support of McKinsey & Company, the Peace One Day 2012 Report found that approximately 280 million people in 198 countries were aware of Peace Day 2012 – 4% of the world’s population. The report further estimates that approximately 2% of those people (5.6 million) behaved more peacefully as a result. Peace One Day expects to double those figures for 2013, creating a solid foundation for informing 3 billion people about Peace Day by 2016.
As an individual, the first thing you can do to help is register your support for Peace Day 21 September here:

#2013 Theme

...Is Peace One Day’s theme for 2013.
Peace Day is not only about a reduction of violence in areas of conflict, it is also about reducing violence in our homes, communities and schools.

more on #PeaceOneDay



The International Day of Peace, sometimes unofficially known as World Peace Day, is observed annually on 21 September. It is dedicated to world peace, and specifically the absence of war and violence, such as might be occasioned by a temporary ceasefire in a combat zone for humanitarian aid access. The day was first celebrated in 1982, and is kept by many nations, political groups, military groups, and peoples. In 2013, for the first time, the Day was dedicated by the Secretary-General of the United Nations to peace education, the key preventive means to reduce war sustainably.[1]
To inaugurate the day, the United Nations Peace Bell is rung at UN Headquarters (in New York City). The bell is cast from coins donated by children from all continents except Africa, and was a gift from the United Nations Association of Japan, as "a reminder of the human cost of war"; the inscription on its side reads, "Long live absolute world peace".[2]
