The Global Impact of HWPL’s DPCW: Advancing Peace and Ending War
War and conflict continue to cause suffering worldwide, highlighting the urgent need for a global solution. The Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW), spearheaded by Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL), is making significant strides toward international peace. This landmark initiative is gaining momentum through discussions, collaborations, and official endorsements from global leaders.
What is the DPCW?
The DPCW (Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War) is an international peace framework introduced in 2016 by HWPL and global legal experts. Comprising 10 articles and 38 clauses, the declaration outlines principles to prohibit war, promote peaceful dispute resolution, and encourage interfaith harmony. The initiative is being actively pursued to gain recognition at the United Nations (UN) and establish legally binding peace laws.
Key Highlights from the 2023 DPCW Conference
In September 2023, HWPL held the DPCW Conference as part of the 9th Anniversary of the September 18th World Peace Summit. This event focused on global peace initiatives, bringing together leaders from 45 countries to discuss strategic plans for implementing the DPCW.
