[HWPL] Zambia Partners with HWPL: A Historic Step Toward Institutionalizing Global Peace

[HWPL] Zambia Partners with HWPL: A Historic Step Toward Institutionalizing Global Peace

​

Can peace be more than just a dream? In Zambia, it is becoming a national policy. On March 3, a landmark trilateral Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed between HWPL and two key Zambian ministries: the Ministry of Home Affairs and Internal Security and the Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development. This isn't just a document; it’s a blueprint for a safer, more peaceful nation.

Zambia Partners with HWPL

🔹 Why This Agreement Matters

​This partnership is a game-changer because it connects local grassroots peace movements directly with national administration and public safety.

​Public Safety & Policing: By partnering with the Ministry of Home Affairs, HWPL’s peace programs are now linked with national security and public order policies.

​Administrative Support: The Ministry of Local Government ensures that peace initiatives reach every corner of Zambia through official administrative channels.

​The LP Initiative: HWPL will lead the Legislate Peace (LP) project, focusing on peace education, civic awareness, and empowering youth and women.

🔹 From the Streets of Lusaka to the Entire Nation

​Zambia’s capital, Lusaka, has already seen the "fruit" of this cooperation. These local successes served as the foundation for this national agreement:

​"Clean Up, Crime Down": A dual-purpose project that improved the environment while simultaneously reducing crime rates.

​DPCW Article 10 Signboard: A public reminder of the importance of spreading a culture of peace.

​Peace Street: The establishment of dedicated zones that symbolize the community's commitment to harmony.

​"This agreement is a living example of applying the principles of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) to national policy."

​🔹 A Model for Africa and the World

​HWPL and the Zambian government aren't stopping here. This "Zambian Model" of institutionalized peace is designed to be shared with neighboring African nations, proving that sustainable peace is achievable when communities and governments work hand-in-hand.

Peace is a collective journey. Zambia’s commitment shows us that when we institutionalize peace, we secure the future for the next generation.

As members of HWPL Supporters ONE, we are thrilled to share the heartwarming news from the Philippines. From January 23 to 24, a wave of peace swept through Kawit and Pasay City to mark the 12th Anniversary of the January 24 HWPL Peace Day.

A Historic Milestone: January 24

To understand this day, we must look back to 2014. Through the mediation of Chairman ManHeeLee, a historic peace agreement was signed in Mindanao, ending four decades of conflict. Today, the Philippine government has legally designated this date as a commemorative day, ensuring that the legacy of WorldPeace is preserved for all.

Peace in Action: 6,000 Steps Toward Unity

In Kawit, we witnessed an incredible sight: 6,000 students and peace advocates marching together to Proclaim their desire for a world without war. At Aguinaldo Elementary School, a new HWPL Peace Monument was erected. This isn't just a stone structure; it is a promise from the local community to protect the coexistence we have worked so hard to achieve.

Building Bridges Through Education

Our mission doesn't stop at ceremonies. True peace is built in the classroom. During this anniversary, institutions like the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF-NCR) signed MOUs to bring the Religious Peace Academy (RPA) to their communities. With over 600 new graduates from the Youth Empowerment Peace Class (YEPC), we are training the leaders of tomorrow to lead a "peace revolution."

The transformation we see in the Philippines proves that when we respect our differences—whether in religion or culture—harmony is possible. However, this miracle should not be limited to Mindanao; it must spread to every corner of the earth.
