International Day of Peace Overview Information

We encourage all URI Cooperation Circle (CC) member groups to participate in the International Day of Peace. We hope everyone will observe the Minute of Silence at 12 noon (especially in schools, and at your Peace Pole if you have one nearby), adding your prayers, meditation or ceremony for peace. You might like to plan a special event as well, such as an interfaith meeting or a peace concert. Also, help to spread the message of peace by contacting local newspapers, radio and television. Connect with your local UN Information Center to coordinate plans. Send a report of your activities to URI to add to other groups'.
