[HWPL]Why South Sudan’s Parliament Officially Adopted the DPCW Resolution!
Hello, everyone! I’m back today with some incredibly heartwarming and inspiring peace news from around the world. Have you ever wondered what kind of transformation happens when a nation's legislative body steps up to make peace a legal reality? A remarkable success story was unveiled at the 2025 HWPL Global Peace Leaders’ Conference (LP Program Panel Talk), a key session celebrating the 11th Anniversary of the September 18th HWPL World Peace Summit.
Rt. Hon. Dr. Jemma Nunu Kumba, Speaker of the Transitional National Legislative Assembly (TNLA) of South Sudan, shared their historic endorsement of the DPCW (Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War). Let’s dive deep into how the desperate yearning of a nation's people is turning into concrete laws and institutions!
Moving for the People:
The reason why the Transitional National Legislative Assembly (TNLA) of South Sudan chose to support and adopt the DPCW resolution is truly moving: their people deeply long for sustainable peace. The DPCW is far more than just words on paper; it provides practical and actionable standards for ending conflict and building peace within national institutions. Because these principles align perfectly with the values of justice, human rights, and reconciliation enshrined in South Sudan's Constitution, it served as the ultimate guide for overcoming the challenges the nation faces today!
What is even more amazing is that the parliament's passion for peace didn't stop even when the assembly was not in session! For months during the recess, the Peace and Reconciliation Committee continuously engaged and coordinated with the HWPL team. Throughout the first half of the year, they held regular meetings to solidify support for a DPCW-based resolution, and as soon as the assembly convened in July, the Committee promptly initiated the legislative process. Isn't that dedication truly inspiring?
From the President to MPs:
1. Heartfelt Consensus Among MPs and ABC Committee Submission
2. Full Endorsement by the President and Key National Leaders!
Speaker Jemma Nunu Kumba left us with a powerful reminder: "Resolutions like the DPCW remain words on paper unless all sectors take responsibility to make them real." To turn these principles into everyday reality, the South Sudanese Parliament is centering its efforts on three core operational priorities:
Promoting Inter-Community Dialogue: Encouraging diverse communities and civil society to practice reconciliation and peace in daily life!
Supporting Grassroots, Community-Based Peacebuilding: Bringing together the efforts of both the government and local communities to form an unbreakable foundation for peace!
By pursuing these, South Sudan's legislature aims not only to secure sustainable peace within its own borders but also to fulfill its grand mission of contributing to the collective peace of humanity.
Isn't this beautiful collaboration between HWPL and South Sudan's legislative body to make peace a living reality absolutely incredible? Just like this journey brings powerful hope to conflict zones, let's all cheer on the international implementation of the DPCW so that it can be institutionalized globally. I hope my fellow blog readers will join in sending warm support and thoughts of peace!

South Sudan's Parliament Takes Action!
The reason why the Transitional National Legislative Assembly (TNLA) of South Sudan chose to support and adopt the DPCW resolution is truly moving: their people deeply long for sustainable peace. The DPCW is far more than just words on paper; it provides practical and actionable standards for ending conflict and building peace within national institutions.

From the President to MPs:
A Nation United for Peace Legislation
1. Heartfelt Consensus Among MPs and ABC Committee Submission
Thanks to these tireless efforts, many Members of Parliament came to share HWPL's vision and wholeheartedly supported the resolution. This wonderful proposal was formally submitted to the ABC Committee and is now being actively pursued in the Whole House for final adoption!
2. Full Endorsement by the President and Key National Leaders!
The momentum didn't stop there! The President of the Republic of South Sudan, the former Chief Justice—who has a long history of cooperation with HWPL—and key national leaders have all fully endorsed the resolution, officially expressing South Sudan’s support. This means the entire country has proudly proclaimed its alignment with the DPCW to the international community. The DPCW has truly become a promise that inspires hope, opens paths for reconciliation, and fosters coexistence among the people.
Three Action Priorities for Peace
Speaker Jemma Nunu Kumba left us with a powerful reminder: "Resolutions like the DPCW remain words on paper unless all sectors take responsibility to make them real." To turn these principles into everyday reality, the South Sudanese Parliament is centering its efforts on three core operational priorities:
Strengthening Political Peace and Reconciliation: Directly reflecting peace principles within national laws and institutions while upholding political agreements!
Promoting Inter-Community Dialogue: Encouraging diverse communities and civil society to practice reconciliation and peace in daily life!
Supporting Grassroots, Community-Based Peacebuilding: Bringing together the efforts of both the government and local communities to form an unbreakable foundation for peace!
By pursuing these, South Sudan's legislature aims not only to secure sustainable peace within its own borders but also to fulfill its grand mission of contributing to the collective peace of humanity.
