Re-review: 2015 HWPL World Peace Summit – 2

Let’s take a trip down memory lane to the 2015 HWPL World Peace Summit. This event was a game-changer in the world of peacebuilding and left a lasting impact on everyone involved. 🌐✨

What Went Down? 🤔

Back in 2015, leaders from various religions, nations, and organizations gathered in Seoul, South Korea, with one common goal: world peace. 🌏❤️ The summit was all about breaking down barriers and fostering a spirit of unity and cooperation. It was a melting pot of ideas, cultures, and beliefs, all coming together to promote peace.

A Symbol of Unity: The Bibimbap Experience 🍲🌍

At the 2015 Peace Festival, participants came together to create a giant bowl of bibimbap, a traditional Korean dish. This culinary activity wasn’t just about sharing a meal; it was a powerful symbol of peace. Each ingredient in bibimbap, from the vibrant vegetables to the savory meats, represents different cultures and communities.

When mixed together, they create a harmonious and delicious dish, much like how diverse groups can come together to create a peaceful world. This act of making bibimbap highlighted the beauty of unity in diversity and the importance of working together for a common goal. 🌍🥗✨

Key Highlights 🌟

International Law for Peace 📜🕊️: One of the major outcomes of the summit was to enact a international law for cessation of war. This law aimed to provide a legal framework to end wars and promote peace globally. This has brought together many international law experts. It was a bold step towards making peace a tangible reality.
Unity Among Religions 🙏🤝: Religious leaders from different faiths pledged to transcend their differences and work together for peace. This was a powerful moment, showing that despite our diverse beliefs, we can all unite for a common cause.
Youth and Women in Action 👩‍🎓👩‍👧‍👦: The summit emphasized the role of youth and women in peacebuilding. Their voices were heard loud and clear, highlighting the importance of inclusive participation in creating a peaceful world.

Join the Movement! 🌈✊

The 2015 HWPL Peace Summit wasn’t just a one-time event; it sparked a movement. The discussions and agreements made during the summit laid the groundwork for ongoing peace initiatives.

Peace isn’t just a lofty ideal; it’s something we can all work towards in our daily lives. Whether it’s through community service, spreading awareness, or simply being kind to one another, every little action counts.

Let’s keep the spirit of the 2015 HWPL Peace Summit alive and strive for a world where peace is the norm, not the exception. And the 2024 HWPL 918 World Peace Summit is coming up. We can’t wait.😊😄

Feel free to share this post and spread the message of peace! 🌟🕊

Over 1,000 leaders from political, religious, women, and youth sectors, along with journalists from about 140 countries, attended to discuss dispute resolution, religious harmony, and establishing legal mechanisms for sustainable 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? 😘

Commitment to Global Peace: HWPL is dedicated to achieving world peace and the cessation of war through various initiatives, including the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW).
Interfaith Harmony: HWPL promotes interfaith harmony to prevent conflicts between religions. By fostering dialogue and understanding among different faiths, they work towards reducing religious tensions and building a more harmonious global community.
Community Engagement and Education: HWPL actively engages with communities worldwide through peace education, volunteer work, and campaigns. Their peace academies and educational programs aim to instill the values of peace in future generations, ensuring sustainable peace for the future.

Peace is up to you :0 Good luck!

Re: 2014 HWPL World Peace Summit – 2

Peace leaders and religious leaders from all over the world gathered in Seoul for the first time in 2014.

It’s a YouTube shorts for less than a minute, so I recommend you watch it. I can feel the excitement wash over me.

In 2013, HWPL declared through the Declaration of World Peace that, to end wars and bring peace to the global community, a new international legal instrument was needed.

At the 2014 World Peace Summit, legal and political leaders from around the world signed an agreement with HWPL to work together on drafting such a document.

In just a year and a half, on 14 March 2016, the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) was proclaimed, and HWPL is actively committed to the introduction of the DPCW into international law.

Man hee Lee, the Chairman of HWPL, said “If you are a believer who truly desires for peace and loves this global community like his own body, religions must become one.
When religions become one, there will be no more war; and if there is no war, there will be peace.
Let’s all become one so we can make this global community into a world of peace.”

Man Hee Lee is a man who is showing the way to the path of peace. With a clear vision, many follow in his footsteps. With him and HWPL, peace will come soon enough.

Re: 2014 HWPL World Peace Summit – 1

Recently, I’ve been re-motivated about peace. I’ve also been thinking about writing a peace novel. Don’t you think it would be fun?

So we felt it was time to take a look back at what HWPL has been up to since 2014. I also found a YouTube channel called HWPL Peace Magazine. I will be reviewing them one by one.

HWPL hosted the HWPL 918 World Peace Summit (HWPL WARPsummit) in 2014 with leaders in politics, religion, women’s groups, youth groups and the media in attendance.

HWPL and leaders of various sectors convened to discuss conflict resolution, establishing peace, and mutual cooperation and signed landmark agreements on building and implementing solid systems for cooperation.

The agreements covered implementing legal instruments to ensure peace, building religious harmony and creating peace activites by state actors and citizens, respectively.

The legal instruments became the DPCW (Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War) in 2016.

It’s so interesting to trace the past like this. It’s inspiring to see what they decided to do then, and how they realized it years later.

In fact, there’s a HWPL Press Conference that attracts a lot of reporters. The Chairman of HWPL, Man hee Lee, coolly answers the question. These days, reporters are increasingly curious, not aggressively snarky.

As I review each video, I hope you will feel the power of HWPL and become a messenger of peace.

LP Program: 2023 DPCW Conference “Legislate Peace(LP)”

In commemoration of the 9th 2023 HWPL World Peace Summit, 61 discussions were held. Participants from 45 countries in the Americas, Africa, Asia, and Europe engaged in meetings.

Do you know DPCW? DPCW is the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War. What is expected now is that the DPCW is the answer to peace.

10 Articles of DPCW contain three important values

1st, Prevention of conflict (Article 1-5)
2nd, Settlement of conflict (Article 6-7)
3rd, Maintenance of peace (Article 8-10)

Full text of DPCW is here.

I wish you had the opportunity to read these slowly. If you read them one by one, you can see that those who truly love peace have clearly confirmed it.

Since 2016, from the civic level, everyone has tried to bring the DPCW to the United Nations.

The “Legislate Peace” (LP) project is a global initiative to support and advocate for the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) and its implementation at the international level.

The LP project started off as the Sign Your Support campaign, which was launched to promote the value of the DPCW as a solution for achieving global peace and urge different sectors of society to support this declaration.

At the 2023 DPCW Conference, the MOU and MOA agreements for the operation and collaboration of peace activities (10 topics), and the national support needed for the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) at the national level (15 topics) were discussed.

In total, 61 project goals were established, and a signing ceremony to implement these projects took place.

After three days of discussions, the DPCW Conference held on September 20th announced the results of the discussions. At the conference, a “Joint Statement on Conflict Resolution and Spreading a Culture of Peace” was publicly released.

This statement emphasizes cooperation and a shared commitment to realizing the DPCW and implementing peace activities. A total of 166 individuals signed the joint statement.

I think selfishness is the most important part to solve in order to achieve peace. People should let go of their greed. Profit should not be more important than life.

I hope we can be peace messengers together. It’s very easy. You just need to change one little thing in your daily life. Let’s find a way together.

Peace is up to you :0 Good luck!

[Challenge] HWPL Supporters ONE Assemble!!

The HWPL (Chairman man hee lee) is the most substantial and powerful organization I know of peace. They are made up of powerful people.
I became a fan because of it, and I’m very proud. 🙂

From the 18th to the 21st, 1,800 people from 121 countries around the world, including the United States, the Philippines, South Africa, Pakistan, Thailand, Romania and India, attended the 2023 HWPL World Peace Summit.

For four days, HWPL signed MOUs/MOAs with about 140 organizations, including the Ministry of Education of five countries and the National Committee of UNESCO of five countries.

In addition, the “World Religious Peace Academy” was established in which religious leaders from around the world understand and harmonize with each other over a total of five times, including Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhism, Islam, and Christianity. It is said that it has become a place to learn and compare other religious writings with an open mind and realize “religious peace.”

HWPL has opened 282 WARP offices in 131 countries so far, and is expected to expand further with this ceremony.

At the ceremony, substantial and practical strategies for enacting legally binding peace international law (DPCW) were discussed by country and field. Legislate Peace (LP) projects became ‘LP Program’. It means that it has become more organized.

A STEP TOWARDS PEACE 2023 International Women’s Peace Conference mother's love leemanhee hwpl iwpg mother IWPG 918 WARP Summit 2023 HWPL World Peace Summit

IWPG unites with women all around the world to fundamentally solve conflicts and violence on the earth.

Through this, IWPG protects precious lives from war and passes down peace as a legacy to the future generation.

How can achieve Peace?

IWPG strives to find a fundamental solution for all conflicts and wars ranging from those that exist among individuals to those among different states in the international community and tries to build a new order that will establish a sustainable world of peace.

For this, each individual must realize their importance as an actor in the peace process and act upon it, which can be done through women’s peace education.

If women unite and raise their voices for the establishment of an international peace law and peace institutions, they will be able to break the vicious cycle of conflict and bring true peace to this world that our future generations can enjoy forever.

“Now is the time to realize peace.
Women all around the world should come together and
end violence, war, and conflict to open a new ever of peace.”

“The night is dark, but there is still a light of hope because there is the moon. Let’s all become messengers of peace that bring an end to war and realize true peace to pass down as a legacy to the future generation.
If we women come together as one, we can do it.”

– Hyun Sook Yoon, the Chairwoman of the International Women’s Peace Group (IWPG)

Women are special because they can conceive life and raise the future generation. This is a video from last year! It would be fun to see how different it is. I hope you’ll see for yourself. 🙂
