🌍 A Practical Solution for Peace: The DPCW 🕊️📜

In today’s complex world, wars are becoming more intricate due to the involvement of non-state actors and religious and ethnic conflicts. HWPL has proposed a practical solution for peace through Article 10, paragraph 38 of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW). This comprehensive response to war and peacebuilding involves the participation of governments, international organizations, and civil society. 🌐🤝

The DPCW has received national endorsements from countries like Seychelles, Eswatini, Comoros, Antigua and Barbuda, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Notably, the Central American Parliament and the Pan African Parliament have also shown their support. HWPL is working tirelessly to advance the DPCW as a binding international law of peace and will present a resolution to the UN General Assembly. 🌍📜

At the heart of this remarkable peace effort is Mr. Lee Man-hee. At 93 years old, he continues to travel tirelessly on peace tours, spreading the seeds of peace.

Re-review: 2015 HWPL World Peace Summit – 1

I’m currently doing a HWPL review from scratch. It’s weird the more I look at it. It started in 2014, and 2015 is the one-year anniversary.

Does the scale make sense? If we say we’re starting something, the beginning is really hard. How much work has gone into making this peace festival happen?

Each of these shorts is super short!
I highly recommend watching each one. 🙂

2015 HWPL World Peace Summit

HWPL hosted the September 18th HWPL World Peace Summit in 2015 with leaders in politics, religion, women’s groups, youth groups, and the media in attendance.

On 918 WARP Summit, 2015, discussions were held to draft international law for peace with international law experts from around the world.

Through this, HWPL launched the “International Law Peace Committee” composed of 19 international law experts from 15 countries.

Knowing what’s going on in 2016, I’m really excited!!!😮😮 I’m sure you’ll be surprised at what can happen in such a short time.

The Chairman of HWPL, Man Hee Lee, said “At the 2014 WARP Summit, we called heaven and earth as witnesses, and in the sight of God, all people of the world, and the Peace Advocate,

we pledged our commitment to the enactment of internationla law for the cessation of war and to the unity of religions.

With the definite solution for achieving peace, we have traveled all over the world and worked for peace. This unprecedented work will go down in history forever.”

Why do people love HWPL? 😘
