Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL), an international NGO under the United Nations Department of Public Information (UN DPI), holds a campaign for peacebuilding titled “Walk Peace” in many cities around the world with its international association NGOs.
During the campaign, participants reflected how values and thoughts in each individual determine their behavior, which allows to embrace the principles shared by the international society for peace – respect for human life, coexistence, sustainability, and a sense of kinship with humanity. Further, the peace walk events in cities around the world are planned to promote a peaceful environment in local communities with voluntary participation by citizens beyond differences in nationality, ethnicity, religion, age, and gender.
This global campaign has been hosted by HWPL and international NGOs since 2013 when the Declaration of World Peace was declared and 30,000 citizens joined the peace walk. International youth have taken the leading role in developing peace walks as a peace project worldwide. HWPL has initiated projects in 120 countries for conflict resolution and peacebuilding, which includes legislation that promotes peace, dialogues, youth empowerment, and peace education.
