In addition to thousands of local events around the world (too numerous to mention) marking the International Day of Peace on September 21, five important international meetings for a culture of peace took place in September.
1 - Addis Ababa (Ethiopia)
Geneva (Switzerland)
UN headquarters in New York
Bangkok (Thailand)

Stockholm (Sweden)
The IPB awarded their annual peace prize to Chelsea/Bradley Manning, the whistleblower imprisoned for having divulged secret information about American culture of war activities . No doubt the whistleblower activities of Manning, Robert Snowden, Glenn Greenwald and Julian Assange have greatly contributed to this growing public opinion against war. Finally, in the same spirit as last month's bulletin about peace education activities, CPNN has recently published reports on the development of peace education in Armenia and Nicaragua. |
