Conflict-Free World, Shaping Peace Together

International Day Of Peace Article Series

This year’s commemoration of Peace Day is special as the universe is grappling with a common enemy: the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has caused a switch in the manner in which the globe operates as it has shown the world that we are not really not each other’s enemies, and we must unite to battle against the common enemy that is the global pandemic. The theme for this year’s Peace Day is ‘Shaping Peace Together’ and the UN invited the world to spread compassion, kindness, and hope in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Youth-Inclusion In The ‘Silencing The Gun’ Initiative Of The African Union (A.U)

The growing momentum for the push towards inclusive peace and security matters by the United Nations marked through the passing of United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 2050 on Youth, Peace, and Security in 2015, has seen the efforts in Africa to include young people in the ‘Silencing the Guns’ initiative. The UNSCR 2050 affirms the positive role young men and women play in maintaining and promoting international peace and security and in building and advancing peace and security in their own countries.
