Peace One Day - Global Truce 2012 campaign

Why the Global Truce 2012 campaign?

You may already know that Peace One Day led the initiative to establish the first ever annual day of global ceasefire and non-violence, unanimously adopted by United Nations member states as 21 September – Peace Day. You may also know that we then proved that the day could work in areas of conflict, most notably in Afghanistan, where Peace Day agreements have led to the vaccination against polio of 4.5 million children in recent years. We are grateful to UNICEF, WHO, UNAMA and other UN agencies for making it a great success.

On Peace Day 2008 the UN Department for Safety and Security announced a 70% reduction in violent incidents in Afghanistan.

These successes and many others led Jeremy to launch the Global Truce 2012 campaign: what we hope will be the largest reduction of violence on one day – Peace Day 21 September 2012 – a world record; and the largest ever gathering of individuals in the name of peace.

That mass participation on Peace Day 2012 will be the key to the success of a Global Truce.

The Power of Youth

Children/Youth are without a doubt the world’s greatest resources. They contain a wealth of enthusiasm, energy, curiosity and open mindedness that hold the answers to many questions and the solutions to many problems and challenges we face in our world.

Enabling children to become part of the solution and honoring their creative abilities to effect positive and sustainable changes within their own environment and the world at large, is an unquestionably necessary part of the answer in creating a world where they may thrive and feel inspired and hopeful about their future.

We need to restore in ourselves and others the idea and belief and feeling that anything is possible, not just for a select few of us but all of us.

There is an abundance of creative energy out there in the world, many with no clue as to the gift that they hold. Providing a platform where for them to explore and embrace it is vital. What this world needs is a wealth of creative people in every field working together to drive change necessary for the survival of the human race.

Helping youth connect with their creativity has a profound effect on the way that they live their lives and in turn the lives around them.

Threads of Conscience Stop Press

Offering an alternative to the world of mass media which more often than not produces magazines and newspapers filled with irrelevant information, full of half-truths and the constant perpetuation of negative drama and lies.

For every media article that highlights useless and irrelevant information that perpetuates needless gossip and negativity and there is another story to be told, a story of hope and courage, care and bravery. There are untold stories of lives and experiences unfolding every moment that need a platform of expression to inspire and encourage others to make positive changes where they can. I hope that Threads of Conscience can provide that platform.

With everything we eat, every item of clothing we wear, every product we use,every piece of media we read, we make a choice.

With every purchase we make we endorse a product and support a company or a corporation.

We can choose to be part of the solution or be part of the problem.
