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. š
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.

In fact, I think there are things from the biggest to the smallest between people who can practice right now.
There are many kinds of peace from within me, peace between people and people, peace between small groups, peace between cities and countries.
What do you think is the most important thing for peace?
I think it’s trust. Trust is more important than anything. And it takes a long time and it doesn’t.
Why don’t people trust each other? How can I build trust? Where is the way we can take a step forward?
Let me introduce an event where you can share your worries.

Title: HWPLās 7th Annual Commemoration of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW)
Subtitle: Institutional Peace: Strengthening Communication to Build Trust
At this yearās commemoration, under the theme, Institutionalizing Peace: Building a Legal Foundation for Sustainable Peace, HWPL spotlights institutionalization as a foundation to make peace take root and develop.
What is the most realistic and best way to achieve peace?
I couldn’t believe anything in the meantime. That would be the same for you guys. But I realized after seeing the HWPL method.
Since the proclamation of the DPCW, the citizen-led peace project Legislate Peace captured HWPLās efforts to expand and strengthen the global alliance for peace.
HWPL sets out to draw the blueprint for peace as an institution, which will serve as the cornerstone for the era of peace.
Which of the citizens is most affected by war?
International organizations such as the UN, the African Union (AU), and the EU have recently stressed normative guidance as a standard to set the course for substantial conflict resolution and peace.
Notably, it is recommended that women and youth participate in discussions on peace so that the concerns of the citizens afflicted by conflict are not overlooked.
This is also related to the two wings of HWPL, IWPG and IPYG. Why are they? This is because young people and women are the biggest victims of the war… Who can pay back their lives..?
What is the spirit of the DPCW?
DPCW from Articles 1 to 7 reaffirms the conventional international law and norms for peace order that run current in the international community, including friendly relations, use of force, conflict resolution by international law.
In addition, in Articles 8 to 10, the DPCW suggests an evolved approach to peaceful resolution in response to evolved conflicts.
The spirit of the DPCW recognizes citizens as the main actor of peacebuilding and points to a transition from the rule of power to the governing by law for harmony, fairness, and justice.

I’m living happily these days. Because it is a university vacation!
These days, I am very interested in startups and AI, and I am happy to read a lot of books. And I recently paid for Netflix, too!
Let’s talk a little bit later, and a letter arrived. Shall we read it together?
Dear family of peace around the globe
I am Man Hee Lee, Chairman of Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL).
A hopeful, new morning of the year 2020 has come.
With all sincerity, I wish all family of peace a Happy New Year filled with hopes and blessings.
Over the past year, we have accomplished together more than any other year for the realization of peace and harmony. All the outcomes would not have been possible without your dedication and hard work for the global community and future generations despite the difficult circumstances. Once again, I humbly thank everyone for working together.
HWPL will do its utmost to make 2020 a year of great leaps toward peace. The 10 articles and 38 clauses of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW), a solution for peace, are awaiting submission to the UN General Assembly. To realize a peaceful world without war through international law, please become a messenger of peace, transcending nationality, ideology, and religion. Please introduce the DPCW and urge support for it. With its family of peace, HWPL is creating an eternal legacy of peace and cessation of war for generations to come.
The year 2020 will be a year that goes down in history.
Our wishes and efforts for the global community and future generations will become a great light that shines on the whole world. The waves of peace will cover the world, and the culture of peace that we have planted will blossom and yield great fruits. At the news of such peace, all creation and even the nature will rejoice and dance.
HWPLās peace messengers and I myself will run at the forefront. I ask for your support and cooperation in the work of peace. With one heart and one mind, let us make 2020 a year of taking a quantum leap toward peace. We are one!
Yours sincerely,
Man Hee Lee, Chairman of Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light
2019 Conference for the Implementation of the Declaration
āLegislate Peaceā ā Implementation of the DPCW for Sustainable Development
On the 19th, the second day of the 2019 World Peace Summit, experts and citizens gathered to share the achievements and focused on the āLegislate Peaceā (LP) project. They were creating a huge stream of peace.
Mr. Man Hee Lee, Chairman of HWPL, explained the necessity of introducing new provisions of peace to international law by stating, āIt is no small task to introduce new provisions to international law. Then we need to know why new ones are needed. This is because wars cannot be ceased with current international law, and if so, peace cannot come to the world. Current international law makes exceptions for the use of force, so wars cannot be ceased. The HWPL International Law Peace Committee, which is composed of world-renowned experts in law, drafted the DPCW. If you think its content is needed for humanity to live and better than the present, it should be carried out.ā.
Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL) has been registered with the United Nations and is now Special Consultative Status with the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and associated with the UN Department of Global Communications (DGC).
HWPL has 170 branches, 158 advisors, 506 publicity ambassadors and over 200,000 volunteers worldwide. HWPL makes worldwide efforts to eliminate war, and is known as the most accomplished NGO in the short run among peace organizations.
Suwon World Cup Stadium (Big Bird)
Built in 2001, the Suwon World Cup Stadium (ģģģė컵경기ģ„) is a football stadium in the South Korean city of Suwon. People call it Bigbird because when seen from above, the stadium looks like a bird.
Location: 456, Uman-dong, Paldal-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea
Capacity: 43,959
Field size: 425,000 m² (site) 66,595 m² (floorage)
Mr. Man Hee Lee, Chairman of HWPL, proclaimed a message of peace filled with passion through his opening speech by saying āFive years ago, at the WARP Summit, Political leaders pledged to work towards an international legal document for peace and cessation of war, religious leaders pledged to achieve the alliance of religions, and heads of various organizations pledged to urge for the completion of this work.
We are working to keep that promise now. The event is held at the same time in many countries around the world. These efforts will shine in the history of the world and we must be united to achieve the promised purpose (of peace). Let the DPCW be presented and passed to the UN General Assembly as international law of peace. We Are One!ā
In particular, events are being held simultaneously in 110 countries, including Korea. Despite the over 10 billion won cost to prepare for the event, the stadium’s action to cancel such events seems to be really problematic.
Also, my friend who was watching at the scene was also very uncomfortable. The sound of loudspeakers from outside the stadium and constant criticism of HWPL events have inconvenienced the 50,000 spectators inside the stadium.
Due to the act of the group shouting outside the stadium, She could not hear well the speech that was conducted inside the stadium, especially the electronic boards installed on the left and right sides of the stadium were turned off, and it was very sad that She could not see the event as a video such as the card section that showed off the event.
It was so sad that the light board was off.
In order for peace to be achieved, I think the level of our culture should be higher. Next time, I expect to have a mature culture, not to disturb the peace event.
Under the theme, Expanding 3.7 Billion Womenās Network for Support and Advocacy of the DPCW and Peaceful Unification of the Korean Peninsula, approximately 1,000 women from home and abroad attended the 2019 International Womenās Peace Conference.
IWPG Chairwoman Hyun Sook Yoon gave a speech which highlighted the important role given to the 3.7 billion women around the world. She urged women to take an active role as peace advocates along with the IWPG.
āAlthough we couldnāt be part of the independence movement, now we can be part of the peace movement ā the greatest cause of our time, which can lead to the cessation of wars and a peaceful unification of the Korean Peninsula. Why shouldnāt we be the ones who protect the lives of our children and prevent any more lost lives? I ask you to send a call to action to the presidents of your respective countries so that they will sign in support of the DPCW and bring forth global peace and the cessation of war. Let your fellow citizens also see that the 10 articles and 38 clauses of the DPCW embody the solution for peace. Help encourage them to support the DPCW as you do and put the nation on track to becoming a leading country in peace works.ā
Giani Harpreet Singh Ji Jathedar (Head), from Sri Akal Takht Sahib urged all to look past religions and beliefs and become one to achieve peace by saying, āI, on behalf of all the Sikhs of the world, give my good wishes to HWPL for attainment of their noble objectives for DPCW to be submitted to the UN General Assembly as a draft resolution and to become a legally binding instrument. Through the World Alliance of Religionsā Peace Office meetings, Religious leaders are discussing the spirit of peace written in scriptures to step forward onto the road of world peace.”

Let’s add the wisdom we have accumulated and use the expertise we have worked for to make sure that peace is complete in this age of life.

Former and incumbent presidents are appointed as peace advisers in our HWPL, including Supreme Court justices, National Assembly speakers, and university presidents. How strong we are!
We can do it, right? I just told you, if you had something like this, there’s nothing you can’t do, right? Isn’t that right? It’s greater than making tens of thousands of nukes, right? It’s more powerful. Let’s be one of you and try to bring the whole world into the IWPG and make peace together. I hope so. Thank you.”
