On International Day of Peace
Join this global mobilization for individual and collective consciousness to ignite hope, raise awareness, and inspire action to protect children from war.
Faith leaders, UN representatives, civil society, children, and youth are standing up to raise global consciousness about the devastating impact of war and violence on children.
They are speaking up and calling on their governments to ensure the protection and well-being of children and to find a peaceful resolution to conflicts.
The world is witnessing an alarming rise in armed conflicts, violence, and displacement, and it is children who suffer the most.
Children in conflict zones are facing severe and ongoing violations of their rights, including their rights to life, physical integrity, family life and education, resulting in lasting physical and psychological consequences.
This must stop!
As the International Day of Peace approaches on 21 September 2025, discover actions you and your community can take to protect children and call for peace.
Mobilizing Communities for Consciousness, Hope, and Ethical Responses.
