Peace Day 2007
LESOTHO

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 Peace and help inspire your community to create humanity's first day of peace, ever.

2006 PLANS

United Nations Development Program Lesotho: The following are activities that will be promoted by UNDP Lesotho to observe the day: The UN Resident Coordinator will read the Secretary General’s message on the National TV channel and the same statement will be broadcast on local radio stations, public, commercial and community radio stations. We submit a press statement to the press to put on local newspapers. UN staff will then commemorate by observing a moment of silence followed by a short prayer and the reading of the Secretary General’s message by the RC. This will be the first time Lesotho observes International Day of Peace and we will improve our activities with time. I however think that these few activities will raise the necessary awareness, especially among the people of Lesotho.
