World Peace Day Preparation

The affiliated partner of the PAN project, UNESCO - A Ray of Hope Project, has been on a preparation tour to prepare for one of the most important United Nations events of the year, the World Peace Day on September 21.

The General Assembly, resolution 55/282 says

"Declares that the International Day of Peace shall henceforth be observed as a day of global ceasefire and non-violence, an invitation to all nations and people to honour a cessation of hostilities for the duration of the Day [...] Invites all Member States, organizations of the United Nations system, and non-governmental organizations and individuals to commemorate, in an appropriate manner, the International Day of Peace, including through education and public awareness, and to cooperate with the United Nations in the establishment of the global ceasefire.”
