The International Day of Peace is a United Nations-sponsored event originally scheduled to coincide with the annual opening of the General Assembly, which takes place in September. Organizers have long hoped that the fusion of these two events will put promoting peace at the forefront of international discussions. In 2001, another UN resolution permanently dedicated Sept. 21 as the official International Day of Peace, with its mission to provide a common moment for individuals, organizations and nations to create practical acts of peace on a shared date, and bring together efforts from around the world whose ultimate focus is promoting peace.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon announced earlier this year that the theme for the International Day of Peace 2010 is “Youth, Peace and Development,” using the slogan “Peace = Future”. Nations and governing bodies the world over are joining the call for peace through a range of activities including ceasefires, official proclamations, and pledges for humanitarian aid.  

Although the observances of Peace Day focus on one day, Sept. 21, many organizations use this occasion as an opportunity to promote their year round Peacebuilding efforts, whether their focus is on human rights, the environment, education, humanitarian relief, poverty, health care, disarmament or international cooperation. This creates long term impact, beyond the annual observance.
