[HWPL] HWPL's Sports Event Promotes Peace in Pakistan

Chairman ManHee Lee is the head representative of the global peace organization HWPL (Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light), which is striving for the enactment and implementation of the international peace law 'Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW)'. The  DPCW is a legal instrument comprised of 10 articles and 38 clauses that can end wars and hostilities throughout the world. HWPL is also spreading a culture of peace and implementing peace education.

Chairman ManHee Lee experienced the cruelty and tragedy of war as a veteran of the Korean War. This is one of the reasons why he founded a global peace campaign as the head of HWPL. He has traveled the globe more than 35 times to meet and persuade politicians, legal experts, journalists, professors, peace activists, civil organization leaders, heads of tribes and others to unite them for the work of peace. The significant fruits borne out of his hard work are the World Alliance of Religions' Peace (WARP) Summit and HWPL Peace Committee. The DPCW was drafted and finalised by the HWPL Peace Committee.

How, you may wonder, do I know this? About 10 years ago, when I had just been discharged from military service, I came to know HWPL and Chairman ManHee Lee while researching the topic of civil conflicts to satisfy my curiosity in ongoing global issues. At that time, the island of Mindanao in the Philippines was suffering from a major civil conflict that lasted more than 40 years, and Chairman ManHee Lee and HWPL resolved this conflict through non-violent means.

Chairman Lee brought an end to the conflict in Mindanao by holding a peace talk between the warring Catholic and Islamic groups. Before the talk, HWPL and Chairman ManHee Lee held a Peace Walk to spread the culture of peace in Mindanao with the many locals who had gathered out of a desire for peace.

Chairman ManHee Lee's pressing appeal today is that humanity unites for sustainable peace in order to pass on the legacy of peace to future generations worldwide. He doesn't just talk peace, but has worked tirelessly for it through practical peace campaigns for over a decade.

I decided to become a supporter of HWPL and Chairman ManHee Lee's peace initiatives because I also desire a world of peace for all posterity.

Today I'd like to introduce an article regarding HWPL's Peace event in ㅖPakistan :)

Annual Fiesta in Pakistan Promotes Peace Through Sports

On February 2, 100 students, 120 parents, and 20 teachers, including the principal, participated in the 2024 Peace Sports Games hosted by HWPL and Millennium Education Pakistan. Through various activities such as races, aerobics, and tug-of-war, participants hoped to promote unity and spread a culture of peace.

Millennium Education Pakistan’s relationship with HWPL began when Sabina Zakir, Millennium Education Pakistan’s director of community, communications and outreach, attended the 2023 HWPL September 18th World Peace Summit. While attending the festival, Zakir asked HWPL to train Millennium Education’s school principals and staff to become peace educators so that they could teach peace education to their students.

Fifty teachers participated in the HWPL peace educator training and completed all 12 courses within six sessions. Although it was not easy for the teachers to take time out of their busy schedules to participate in the training, they were passionate about peace and actively participated.

Teachers who completed HWPL’s peace educator training said they had found the answer to peace and understood the importance of becoming peace educators. They were determined to make peace and pass peace on as a legacy for future generations.

The teachers from Millennium Education Pakistan, along with volunteers from HWPL, also prepared a peace sports event. Students and parents said they were happy and honored to participate in peace activities.

“Peace games are collaborative, interactive simulations designed to foster understanding, cooperation, and conflict resolution among participants,” said Maira, a teacher from Millennium Education Pakistan. “The overarching goal of Annual Sports Fiesta 2024 Peace Through Sports is to navigate complex issues and reach peaceful resolutions.”
