The International Day of Peace is
fast approaching! Here's how you can celebrate:
- Get tickets to our September 21 online screening
of the powerful film "We
Are Many," the story of the largest demonstration
in human history on February 15th, 2003, when 30
million people, many of whom had never demonstrated
before, came out in nearly 800 cities around the world
to protest against the impending Iraq War.
- Check out our events listings for LOTS of online
and physically-distanced events on September 20th and
21st.

our Flyers page.
- Wear your blue scarves and World BEYOND War gear.
- Snap a photo of your Peace Day celebration and
email it to us at gr...@worldbeyondwar.org.
- Post on social media - be sure to tag
@worldbeyondwar and use the #peaceday hashtag.
Established in 1981 by the United
Nations, Peace Day is celebrated by many nations and
organizations with events all over the world. The
International Day of Peace is an important day to
reaffirm our collective call for peace. As a
UN-designated day for nonviolence and ceasefire, this
24-hour pause on war begs the question of why we can't
have year-long or forever-long pauses in wars. This September 21, join us to
demand war abolition.
For a world
beyond war,
