The first Peace Day was celebrated on September 21, 1982 and officially declared in 2002.

The video above is of a song from the International  Day Of Peace Alliance – a group in Brisbane  which has initiated a project for schools -  Peace Doves for Children in Conflict Zones . The aim is show support for children in Conflict Areas by sending them paper doves. An instuction sheet can be found at this linkIf your school doesn’t want to send the doves away, why not display them in the classroom or in Peace Trees around the school.

 The Culture of Peace is a new initiative aimed at uniting the strenghts of existing organisations to build peace for future generations.  It will be the Internet anchor for a Global World Peace Celebrations website where people from around the world can post videos and messages relating to the achievemnet of peace through environmental sustainabiulity.
