International Day of Peace 2024: Theme This year, the theme mentioned by the United Nations is ‘Cultivating a Culture of Peace’ . The day marks the 25th anniversary of the United Nations General Assembly’s adoption of the Declaration and Programme of Action on a Culture of Peace in 2024. As the National Federation of PBOs. The Global Partnership Organization is committed to a Peaceful world. Peace, justice, and strong institutions are three essential elements of a stable and prosperous society. Together, they provide the foundation for a secure and just community, where individuals can live and thrive in safety and security. Peace is the absence of violence, fear, and conflict. We shall continue working with all stakeholders for a peaceful and better world society. It is an essential element to the realization of all human rights. Peace is a product of human rights: the more a society promotes, protects and fulfils the human rights of its people, the greater its chances for curbing violence and resolving conflicts peacefully. It is essential for the well-being of individuals and communities, and is a prerequisite for sustainable development. In order to achieve peace, it is necessary to address the root causes of violence and conflict, such as poverty, inequality, and marginalization. Strong institutions are essential for ensuring that peace and justice are maintained and upheld. This includes a robust system of government, an independent judiciary, and a strong civil society. Strong institutions are able to respond effectively to the needs and concerns of citizens, and are able to hold those in power accountable for their actions. In order to achieve peace, justice, and strong institutions, it is necessary to build and maintain a culture of mutual respect and understanding. This requires the active participation of all members of society, including the government, civil society, and the private sector. It also requires a commitment to transparency, accountability, and the rule of law. This can be done through the implementation of policies that promote economic and social development, as well as through the promotion of dialogue and reconciliation between different groups. We wish all Kenyans a Happy and Peaceful nation. 2 Thessalonians 3:16. Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. Kind regards, Stephen K.
