The International Day of Peace (“Peace Day”) is observed around the world each year on 21st September. Established in 1981 by unanimous United Nations resolution, Peace Day provides a globally shared date for all humanity to commit to Peace above all differences and to contribute to building a Culture of Peace. This year is particularly significant: It is the 20th Anniversary of the UN Resolution on the Programme of Action for a Culture of Peace.

Let us all create Peace Day everyday! This year, The UN has suggested the theme – Shaping Peace Together. Celebrate the International Day of Peace by spreading compassion, kindness and hope in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.
