Peace Day —
Friday, September 21, 2018


The International Day of Peace (Peace Day) is observed around the world each year on 21 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.

  From education to the arts, social justice to sports, health to the environment, neighborhood issues to service for others, there are many ways to participate in Peace Day! We invite you to create a public or private activity related to peace, spread the word about Peace Day and/or attend an event in your community.

Peace Day is a hope and a dream. Perhaps one day, a reality.
