DPCW, the international law necessary for peacebuilding.

 The global society has commended the historic decision of the North Korea-US dialogue, following the ‘Peace Olympics’ held in South Korea. A Korea-based international peace non-governmental organisation recently held an event in honour of “The second yearly commemoration of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW)” in Seoul, South Korea.

“Rather than taking peace for granted, we are the ones to put an end to war to protect humanity and our globe, and leave peace as a legacy for future generations. Todays’ law cannot compensate for the lives sacrificed in war. What we need is an instrument that protects human life, a law that prevents war.”

- Mr. Man Hee Lee, Chairman of HWPL -

“No human being and no animal on planet Earth can survive from weapons of mass destruction. Even an error or an accident can cause widespread damage to human life and property, which cannot be replenished. We all have to work 365 days and 24 hours together for peace as a messenger of peace.”

- Mr. Pravin H. Parekh, the president - 

 “If we want to put an end to war and build peace, let us work together for peace and overcome the boundary of state, ethnicity and religion. We have to think of how to resolve international conflicts through adoption of DPCW as a UN resolution. And the international society should provide assistance to facilitate peace education proposed by HWPL.”

- Mr. Deok Gyu Lim(Former president of International Law Association, Korea) - 

I also think that cooperation is important of realizing to make peace. So this event in Koea provided an opportunity for the global community to become united and cooperate.

International law for peace! Do you know regarding of 'the law' ?
This law was declared two years ago in 2016 for legislation.
Last year, a peace forum was held to commemorate the 1th anniversary of the International Law Declaration.
If this law obstructs discrimination between religions and the people, wouldn't the war certainly stop?

🌟 I hope you to be interested in this international law~! 🌟

Wind of peace rises on the worldwide: Movement of Nigerian youths for example

Nigerian youths take lead in peace building for the community

 

At last October 27th, ‘Discussion on the Action Plan of the HWPL Peace Advocacy Committee’ hosted by IWPG (International Women Peace Group) and IPYG (International Peace Youth Group) was held at Kano Hospital Digital Conference Hall in Kano, Nigeria. About 20 representative members in the ‘Patriotic Youth Organisation of Nigeria’ (PYON) and around 30 audiences attended this seminar and devised practical plans for supporting the DPCW (Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War) and advocating the ‘Implementation of the International Law’ for peace. The PYON is a cooperating group with HWPL for peace activities in Nigeria, whose membership has reached 20, 000. It has diverse field members, including professors, lawyers, and journalists. It has tried to make their community a better place for Nigerians to live.

At the DPCW by the global community through the global peace summit, held in Republic of Korea, named the World Alliance of Religions’ Peace (WARP) Summit, PYON chairman, AbdulAziz Seymour Omololu delivered a speech, where he highlighted the importance of civil society’s role in raising public awareness and collective action for peace-building projects.

He said: “I’d like to introduce the 2nd Annual Commemoration of the WARP Summit and explain the Strategy Road map of the DPCW, and its action plan. And we will discuss how we drive the national support for it. We will decide how we collaborate and precede signature campaigns, as a way of support.”

After watching the video, Mr. Adam Sa’id, Vice president of PYON, said: “I was very excited by the audience reaction, which showed that they really understood what the DPCW is all about and their readiness to give their contribution of developing and making it a legally binding document. I also felt extremely happy to see that the audience was really impressed with the letter from the chairman of HWPL, Man Hee Lee.”

The DPCW was drafted with the intent of promoting the respect of fundamental human rights and an international law, and of further involving States in the active protection of those rights.

As a part of action plan, currently, ‘Discussion on the Action Plan of the HWPL Peace Advocacy Committee’ is the first step in realisation of peace in Nigeria.

In this regard, HWPL Peace Advocacy Committee in Kano State also holds monthly discussion to examine the results of their activities and to attain 20,000 signatures for supporting the DPCW. Nigeria takes one step forward to the real peace and is ready to propel drawing Nigerians’ attention on it with this discussion.

Although people of world didn 't significantly consider at beginning, someday peace would arrive for sure on the worldwide!

Will and continuous activity of HWPL to achieve peace on earth

Conference in support of HWPL's work for Peace and Cessation of War

 

SEOUL, Nov 28: A conference aimed at advocating for the implementation of an international legal document compatible with the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) was convened by Heavenly Culture, World Peace, and Restoration of Light (HWPL) on Thursday in Coex Auditorium. Korean political officials, religious leaders, press, and citizens, a total of 1,000 people, gathered to demonstrate the urgency with which a legally binding document based on the principles of the DPCW must be implemented.

 

HWPL Chairman Man Hee Lee emphasized that the work of peace can no longer be put off and that the leaders must take action beyond mere lip service.

 

“Although we pass down something valuable to the next generations, would it really be an eternal legacy? Only when we pass on to successive generations an invaluable inheritance of a world free of wars, will we meet our responsibilities as leaders, citizens, and people of today. The international community has to acknowledge what is delineated in the DPCW and then modify and develop the current international legal systems.”

 

The advocacy conference sought to demonstrate how to remedy disparities caused by war and war-like activities throughout the world, and it also showed the concrete efforts and interests of participants in creating an environment for peace-building.

 

Chairwoman Nam Hee Kim of the International Women’s Peace Group (IWPG) said that women’s leadership and participation improves the likelihood of the success of the global peace process.

 

“Sustainable peace is yet being waited for. What can explain this? That is because peace is not something that can be achieved by the authority or power of politicians or noble men. However, despite many obstacles, the work of peace must be done. IWPG gathers the 3.6 billion women of the world and actively works for the Declaration to be adopted by the UN. This legal framework will become a fundamental enforceable law for the generations to come.”

 

Eight panelists representing government, civil society, university, and faith-based organizations each spoke respectively about their explicit support for the Declaration and urged that the leaders at all levels should cooperate with HWPL’s work for peace and cessation of war.

 

Yu-Hyuk Kim, tenured emeritus professor of Dan-Kuk University said, “Why is it that the globe sounds the same pitch in spite of the differences in language, skin color, culture, and life style? The only reason is this. We all have the same purpose of achieving the world of peace without wars. In reality, it is to make a better future and ideally, it is to infinitely settle peace and realize the far-reaching universal value of humanity.”

 

He continued, “This work has been proclaimed by many, but HWPL Chairman, the greatest peace advocate, is beyond the proclamation and always on the move to bring forth peace. Today, this conference serves as a significant platform to urge leaders and citizens to support the implementation of international law inspired by the DPCW and be resolute to work for peace with the peace advocate.”

 

The 2016 Conference in Support of HWPL's Work for Peace and Cessation of War brought the Korean leaders to the forefront of international peace and security and presented their creative partnerships to inspire the world in the peace-building arena under the banner of the DPCW.

The forum was joined by approximately 1,000 female leaders from home and abroad including Teiraeng Maamau, First Lady of Kiribati; Awut Deng Acuil, the Minister of Gender, Child and Social Welfare of the Republic of South Sudan; and Anna Cervenakova, a human rights attorney from the Czech Republic.

 

Currently, there is a growing sense of urgency in the international community for solutions to the acts of terror in numbers of locations around the globe and a series of missile testing carried out by North Korea. Amidst the global situation, the Forum convened female leaders from various countries who urged for the implementation of international law for peace and cessation of war and for the reunification of the Korean Peninsula.

 

 

In her remarks on the Forum, IWPG Chairwoman emphasized that the DPCW contains the framework of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for the goal of achievement of human development and said, “the UN and international society should expand the role of women in security, cessation of war and peace.” She also stated that the most prominent method of women development is to advocate the DPCW for the adoption of the declaration into the international law for the cessation of war and peace.

At the end of the Forum, 109 new members from 16 countries were appointed to the IWPG Peace Committee. The Committee is set to promote IWPG peace works in respective countries and campaign with women in their respective communities

Purpose of Peace Law

 

For the Future of an International Peace Law

The quintessence of an international peace law is to support order among societies worldwide and to attain humanity’s fundamental goals: peace, prosperity, human rights, and environmental protection. However, blockages embedded in our daily lives for centuries have held back the effectiveness of an international peace law, scattering its pure intentions. From big international disputes to conflicts that we experience in our day to day lives, situations remain unresolved, in these cases, the role of an international law seems weak. Initiated by an international NGO, however, there is a hopeful spark for the future of an international law, one that will draw a new framework for global peace. 

 

  Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War, Stepping Forward to a Law for Humanity       

HWPL initiated an International Law for Peace and Cessation of War as a solution to bring about peace to humanity and an instrument to dispose of all means that initiate war and armed conflicts. Representing the collective wish of people from all walks of life - HWPL’s initiative to international law for peace is a powerful and ground-breaking tool which will enable worldwide enjoyment of peace. Gaining global support, united in one voice, women and youth are at the forefront of urging for the presentation and implementation of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War through the Advocacy Committee.

 

Proclamation Ceremony of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War

In March 2016, HWPL aimed at taking a great leap forward for peace by publicly presenting the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War at the HWPL’s Proclamation Ceremony which was attended by Government representatives of legal affairs, HWPL International Law Peace Committee, HWPL Advisory Council Members&Publicity Ambassadors, and IPYG&IWPG members. The proclamation ceremony served as a platform to not only proclaim the Declaration to the public for the first time but also initiate the development process of the Declaration into an enforceable International Law, thus reaffirming our solidarity in bringing forth a world without wars.
