ABOUT THE CULTURE OF PEACE INITIATIVE

The Culture Of Peace (CPI) Initiative
In 1983, Pathways To Peace (PTP) inaugurated an Initiative to coordinate the International Day of Peace and Peacebuilding activities with members of civil society representing diverse organisations. Robert Muller, then Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations, approved this Initiative. The following year, citizens in over 52 countries became participants in this Initiative and in 1989, UN Secretary-General Perez de Cuellar granted status of Peace Messenger Initiative to the We the Peoples Initiative - now the Culture of Peace Initiative.

Since its inception, the Culture of Peace Initiative has continued to serve as a community of forerunners in the emerging field of Peacebuilding, to give evidence that peace is a practical reality and necessity in the 21st century.

The annual highlight of the CPI, the International Day of Peace, September 21, marks our personal and planetary progress toward peace, and reminds us that our commitment - above all interests or differences of any kind - is to peace.

PEACE DAY

September 21st: The International Day Of Peace
At its 36th session of the United Nations, the General Assembly unanimously adopted a resolution on November 30, 1981, establishing the International Day of Peace (Peace Day), devoted "to commemorating and strengthening the ideals of peace both within and among all nations and peoples." In 2001, another U.N. resolution set September 21 as the fixed annual date for Peace Day.

CPI Annual Report Submitted To The United Nations
Beginning in 1983, at the request of the Office of the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Pathways To Peace has submitted a CPI Annual Report to the UN, summarizing the Peace Day activities of participating organisations, individuals and groups worldwide. CPI is global/local, inter-generational and multicultural.

THANKS EVERYBODY


皆さんお元気ですか??
