About Peace Days:
Peace Days is a space that’s been created to promote and inspire understanding, goodwill, and compassion locally, nationally, and internationally, it supports and motivates people who want a culture of peace and compassion. It encourages conversations and relationships that will inspire action, commitment, and the promotion of positive peace and peace literacy. Peace Days was inspired by Rotary World Peace Partners in 2003 envisaging the idea of a Canadian Museum for Human Rights as a beacon of hope for the oppressed, impoverished and vulnerable Peoples of the World. Peace Days grew out of a desire to celebrate the United Nations’ International Day of Peace (September 21st annually).
