As you know Peace One Day and founder Jeremy Gilley are friends and supporters of our Lennon Bermuda project. We would like to give you an update on what they are planning for 2014.
Jeremy just returned from an illuminating trip to the Great Lakes region of Africa, visiting both Rwanda and the DRC, raising awareness of Peace Day in the region.
The goal of the Peace One Day project in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and throughout the Great Lakes Region (GLR) is to encourage all parties to stand together in the name of peace on 21 September. Starting this year we aim to raise the level of awareness of, and respect for Peace Day, so as to generate a significant reduction of violence across the country on the day by 2016.
