Join Pathways To Peace (PTP) in 
Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the 
UN Resolution establishing the
United Nations International Day of Peace (Peace Day)


The International Day of Peace (Peace Day) is held annually on September 21st.  Over the years, Peace Day has grown from a single event of a few hundred people into a global movement that reaches hundreds of millions of people around our world.
 
Peace Day, as established by unanimous United Nations resolution in 1981, provides a globally shared date for all humanity to commit to Peace above all differences and to contribute to building a Culture of Peace.
 
There are activities occurring all over the world - 
it's time to get engaged!

Lessons from the Pandemic









Facilitated by Kimberly Weichel, Author and Activist and... 







Tezikiah Gabriel, PTP Executive Director

October 5th, 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm EDT via zoom:
 
This is the fourth in a series of community dialogues where participants share thoughts and ideas about what we are learning and how it might assist us in creating a new era of Peace!

Please join the conversation!

Kim Weichel just launched her new book Uncovering New Possibilities: Insights from Our Time, about what we are learning personally and collectively during this extraordinary time of the pandemic, and what might emerge.  Tez and Kim co-authored a chapter on how we can live in peace during crisis. Part self-help, part encouragement, part advocacy, and part insight, the book is a way to process the life-changing events we have lived through in the past year. This work inspired Kim and Tez to host dialogues to learn from others the issues, opportunities, challenges, and lessons learned through this extraordinary time on our planet.

Incorporated in 1983, Pathways to Peace (PTP) is an international organization dedicated to making Peace a practical reality in our world today. PTP is an official Peace Messenger of the United Nations and has Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council.
