[Peace news] Youth's Message to the UN "We care about peace"....How about joining IPYG?



UN news reported that Security Council meeting Maintenance of international peace and security was hosted on July 17th 2019. Ms. Jayathma Wickramanayake, the Secretary-General's Envoy on Youth, made a few clear points about youth during her speech regarding peace and security.

And, I'd like to emphasize a few main points from her speech.

1. Young people suffer from many things (stereotypes, myths and policies etc.) which harm and hinder their ability to work for peace.

2. Young people are easily framed as "a problem to be solved and a threat to be contained" while they are not actually not involved in violence.

3. Young peacebuilders and human rights advocates are vulnerable to threats, intimidation, violence, arbitrary arrest and retaliation by the State and non-State.

From what I have seen and heard from fellow peace activists and supporters throughout the world, the above 3 points are very true for young people. In this world, youth have to fight ideological, conventional and political problems that lie in their society. Some of them are easily exploited by violent extremists and terrorists for conflicts and wars.

Meanwhile, even though they may desperately want to start and join peace campaigns, doing so is usually restricted to people with political, financial and educational advantage.


Therefore, I want to introduce HWPL (Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light. Chairman: Mr. Man Hee Lee) and IPYG (International Peace Youth Group) to the world's youth.

Mr. Man Hee Lee's peace organizations have been running a Peace Walk campaign, 'Legislate Peace' campaign and Peace Letter campaign for the enactment of an international law DPCW (Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War), which is the perfect answer for world peace.

It is not hard to work jointly with IPYG. Youth can visit their official homepage or write hand-written peace letters to their state leader urging them to support the DPCW for world peace. Moreover, they can walk with the peace group together for world peace.



So, what would you do? If you really want world peace, become a peace advocate with HWPL and IPYG :) Let's work for peace so that we can achieve peace :)



Peace!
