On the 21st of September, Jeremy Gilley, creator of Peace One Day, reports that there will be peace walks in Tijuana, cycling in Kampala, football matches in Manila, prayers for peace in Jerusalem, flashmobs in London, festivals in Sydney, DJ sets in Dar es Salaam, roundtable debates with politicians in Moscow, distribution of fuel efficient stoves in IDP camps and vaccinations in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), water backpack distribution in Marsabit, Kenya, concerts in Kigali and Bujumbura, food drops and much more - this is only a tiny sample of what people are doing to mark Peace Day. The Casady Community Service-Learning Program in collaboration with the YAC Peace Team responded to the biggest call for peace the world has ever seen with promotion of the Compassion Games during the 11 Days of Global Unity through acts of kindness, compassion and service.

WATCH THE LIVE STREAM OF THE PEACE ONE DAY CELEBRATION 2014 FROM GOMA, DRC! The Governor of North Kivu province, DRC, recently announced his support for our concert on Peace Day. It was a pivotal moment for Jeremy Gilley and his 3-year campaign for Peace Day in the DRC and GLR. Showcasing global activation on Peace Day, this celebration will be headlined by five-time Grammy Award-nominated recording artist Akon, with performances from regional artists Lexxus Legal, Dety Darba, traditional drummers Sango’a, and comedian Mzee Mbukuli. You can watch the celebration LIVE and FREE via the Peace One Day YouTube channel at the following link:

Please start thinking about who you can bring together to watch this momentous celebration of peace and unity on 21 September and please share the above link as widely as possible. The concert will also be broadcast LIVE on radio and TV across the region and the world, supporting our goal of institutionalizing Peace Day across the globe. THE PEACE ONE DAY STORY IN 60 SECONDS To help you make some noise about Peace Day and their work for the day in the DRC and GLR, please find below the new film, ‘Peace One Day Story in One Minute’, telling the story of the sixteen year Peace One Day journey in 60 seconds.
