What is the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW)?

On 14 March 2016, HWPL proclaimed the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW), which was drafted with the participation of international law experts from 15 countries.

 

This declaration, comprised of 10 articles and 38 clauses, aims to restore the spirit that served as the basis for the establishment of the United Nations and to achieve sustainable peace by promoting the universal values of the global community.

 

The DPCW embodies the principles and measures for preventing and resolving conflicts and sustaining a peaceful global society.

The ten articles of the DPCW contain three important values

 

First, prevention of conflict (Article 1-5)

Call upon States to cooperate towards gradual disarmament, repurpose weapons manufacturing facilities to serve purposes that are beneficial to humanity, and develop friendly relations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples

Second, settlement of conflict (Article 6-7)

Reaffirm the role of international supervisory bodies in maintaining global peace and security and call for arbitration, mediation, and conciliation as means of settling disputes peacefully

Third, maintenance of peace (Article 8-10)

Address the principles and conduct that can maintain a peaceful global society once it is established
