【Our duty for peace】
It is everyone’s
duty to reduce the existing causes of conflict and pursue harmonious
coexistence.
After two devastating world wars, the
United Nations was founded for the purpose of preventing war and maintaining
international peace and security. Since then, many international instruments
have been developed to ensure peace, and the global community recognized the
need not only to prevent and prohibit armed conflict and violence but also to
cooperate with each other. Still today,
many factors such as interfaith conflict, ethnic hatred, and cultural prejudice
are threatening peace.
The international community should work towards a comprehensive
legal solution that can secure peace and protect the daily lives of all
citizens regardless of their nationality, ethnicity, or religion. By preparing a legal instrument
that can ensure and maintain peace at the national and international levels, we
can turn our world into a peaceful place.
HWPL is engaged in peace activities centered on the Declaration
of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) with the aim of establishing a legal
framework for sustainable peace.
The ten articles
of the DPCW contain
three important values
