Add to Calendar

Each year the International Day of Peace is observed around the world on 21 September. The UN General Assembly has declared this as a day devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace, both within and among all nations and peoples.

Geneva Peace Talks is a public event organised on the occasion of the International Day of Peace in partnership between the United Nations Office at Geneva, the Geneva Peacebuilding Platform and Interpeace. The event aims to catalyze practice and ideas on themes related to peace that resonate from Geneva's diverse community of practice and the broader peacebuilding field.

The theme of the first Geneva Peace Talks is "What peace means to me."

Geneva Peacebuilding Platform is a joint project of four institutions: The Centre on Conflict, Development and Peacebuilding (CCDP) of the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies; the Geneva Centre for Security Policy (GCSP); Interpeace; and the Quaker United Nations Office, Geneva (QUNO).

Registration to participate in this event is obligatory.
