Today
is the UN’s designated International Day of Peace, a celebration designed to
encourage peace among all people and all nations. With controversy at every
turn in these modern times, there might be no better day of recognition.
Celebrations today will be both elaborate and simple, public and private. As
leaders, Altrusans are called to make a difference. The Leadership Development
and Training Committee hopes that you will ponder how your life can be used to
the greater good of furthering peace worldwide, or right where you are.
Messengers of Peace
The
UN Messengers of Peace are charged with spreading good news and furthering the
mission of the United Nations. To the world, they are public figures—leaders in
art, music, science, entertainment, sports, or some other realm, but the
Messengers are also passionate human beings with a desire to see peace on
Earth. They are leaders. Read more about them here: http://outreach.un.org/mop/
