Bill Text

WHEREAS, Established in 1981 by a unanimous UN resolution, the International Day of Peace is a United Nations-sanctioned holiday dedicated to promoting global peace and nonviolence; and

WHEREAS, The International Day of Peace serves as a shared moment for humanity to reflect on the ideals of peace and work toward a culture of harmony across nations, communities, and individuals; and

WHEREAS, The observance of the International Day of Peace is marked by significant events, including the ringing of the Peace Bell in the United Nations headquarters, which serves as a solemn reminder of the human cost of war and a call to action for collective efforts toward peace; and

WHEREAS, By designating a day for cease-fire and humanitarian efforts, the International Day of Peace creates opportunities to address immediate crises while fostering long-term solutions and provides a global platform for dialogue and education on conflict resolution, cooperation, and the cessation of violence; and

WHEREAS, Every International Day of Peace presents a theme, such as 2024’s “Cultivating a Culture of Peace,” encouraging collaboration among nations, organizations, and communities to tackle pressing global challenges and promote sustainable peace initiatives; and 

WHEREAS, The International Day of Peace matters because it highlights the universal importance of justice, equity, and human rights in achieving lasting harmony; in a world marked by geopolitical tensions and social inequalities, the International Day of Peace reminds us of our shared responsibility to build bridges instead of walls; and

WHEREAS, The International Day of Peace serves as a powerful reminder that peace is not merely the absence of war, but the active presence of understanding, compassion, and solidarity, making it an essential foundation for a stable and prosperous future; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, the Senate thereof concurring, That the Legislature hereby recognizes and proclaims September 21, 2025, as the International Day of Peace; and be it further

Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly transmit copies of this resolution to the author for appropriate distribution.
