Africa-Press<\/a> – Malawi<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL) on September 18 held the World Peace Summit virtually where delegates discussed the progress of international efforts and the plans to promote the peace agenda in the \u2018New Normal\u2019 era shifting from the post-Covid to the with-Covid.<\/p>\n

HWPL has been conducting citizen-centered peacebuilding activities to create \u201ca culture of peace\u201d advocated by the UN and international community to set up an environment of peaceful coexistence since the World Peace Summit in 2014.<\/p>\n

The September 18 event presented the concerted action for sustainable peace with cases from various sectors such as international law, religion, education, and the media. Also, it addressed international cooperation to overcome the current crisis that threatens the coexistence and harmony of mankind, which has come to the fore during the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Peacebuilding efforts led by HWPL to establish legal foundations and international norms for peace through connecting global actors are embodied with its effort to advocate the international law for peace by drafting the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe DPCW Handbook enables us to systematically teach international law and the essence of peace to these students and others. It enables them to become lecturers in the following course,\u201d said Dr. Mizanur Rahman, Chief Advisor of Asian Association of Law Professors (AALP) as well as Former Chair of National Human Rights Commission, Bangladesh (NHRC-BD), highlighting the need to encourage public discourse on peacebuilding by academia.<\/p>\n

In addition to the basic principles of peace assigned to nations to uphold, the DPCW has presented principles that should be dealt with in the present era, such as prohibiting the use of force, fostering religious freedom, and civic participation to spread a culture of peace.<\/p>\n

In particular, it states that efforts for peace come from all members of the global society by identifying not only nation-states but also international organizations and all citizens as the main actors of building peace.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know that it will be hard to achieve peace if we are not all working for it. This is why we need to encourage children, the youth, and adults to prevent verbal abuse and work towards reducing inequalities and eradicating disparities to achieve a more equitable, stable, and peaceful world,\u201d said Former President of Ecuador, Dr. Rosalia Arteaga Serrano.<\/p>\n

Hon. Octavia Alfred, Minister of Education, Human Resource Planning, Vocational Training, and National Excellence of Dominica, said that the students learn the necessity of mutual coexistence and cooperation through HWPL peace education and pass on to their friends, parents, and teachers what they have learned.<\/p>\n

She addressed it also deals with concepts that can develop psychosocial competency skills, such as respect for diversity, order, conflict resolution, and negotiation, so it is being used for teacher\u2019s training.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur objective is to end wars in the global village and establish peace and make it a permanent legacy for future generations. Without peace, everything that we managed to build would be destroyed. \u2026 We should not let this happen. So, to achieve peace, shouldn\u2019t we achieve our objective with the same spirit?\u201d said Chairman Man Hee Lee of HWPL at the event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
