A Philosophy of Peace Born from the Sorrows of War
At the heart of the peace pursued by HWPL lies the resolute determination of Chairman Man-hee Lee. Having witnessed the horrors of the Korean War firsthand as a student soldier, he founded HWPL with the conviction that youth should no longer be sacrificed on the battlefield. His message of peace, rooted in the tragic reality of war, has evolved into the DPCW—a practical and institutional pathway toward lasting stability.
The Birth of the DPCW: A Product of International Consensus
The journey of the DPCW began at the 2014 HWPL World Peace Summit in Seoul. Leaders from 152 countries shared a consensus that reacting only after a conflict arises is insufficient to prevent war. Consequently, the necessity for an international standard for WorldPeace became clear. In 2015, the HWPL International Law Peace Committee (ILPC) was launched. After rigorous legal reviews, the 10-article, 38-clause DPCW was completed and proclaimed on March 14, 2016, providing a concrete legal mechanism for the path humanity must take.
Key Pillars: Writing Peace into Law
The DPCW complements existing international legal frameworks with practical measures to block war at its source:
Prohibition of the Use of Force: Establishing clear standards to eliminate justifications for war.
Peaceful Resolution of Disputes: Systematizing legal and diplomatic dialogue over military might.
Interfaith Cooperation: Guaranteeing religious freedom and promoting mutual collaboration.
Spreading a Culture of Peace: Fostering peace awareness through civil society participation.
