Let's celebrate the International Day of Living Together in Peace

Graines de Paix invites you to discover the inspiring documentary "Nous tous - All of us" by Belgian director Pierre Pirard.

On December 8, 2017, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed May 16 as the International Day of Living Together in Peace. It is a means of regularly mobilizing the efforts of the international community to promote peace, tolerance, inclusion, understanding and solidarity. The Day aims to uphold the desire to live and act together, united in differences and diversity, in order to build a sustainable world of peace, solidarity and harmony.

JIVEP also invites countries to further promote reconciliation to help to ensure peace and sustainable development, including by working with communities, faith leaders and other relevant actors, through reconciliatory measures and acts of service and by encouraging forgiveness and compassion among individuals.

Beyond the celebrations, JIVEP is also an opportunity for everyone to be an actor of peace. We therefore invite you to sign the Universal Declaration of Living Together in Peace.
