Peace
Day 2007
FRANCE
All United Nations member countries agreed to celebrate September 21, The International Day of Peace
as a Global Ceasefire and Day of Peace & Nonviolence in our homes,
our communities and between nations. Peace Day has been a focal point
for community-uniting and peace-inspiring events since its inception
in 1981.
Together we can create a more peaceful, just and sustainable world,
one heart, one family, one community at a time. Join the Countdown To

of peace, ever.

of Churches (COE). We will make flyers available and there will
also be the possibility of signing the letter-petition for the
Campaign “Education for non-violence and peace in our schools.”
