[]UN, IPYG and Peace walk.

UN (United Nation) is one of well known and influential organization. United Nation was established in 1945 after WW2 in order to replace the role of League of Nations.[1] Its main vision is to stop wars between nations and it has been working as an international platform for dialogue. As an international conflict intermediary, it has many subsidiary organizations to make their vision come true.

One of its subsidiary organization, the UN youth participated in IPYG peace walk campaign. They said they were impressed with the IPYG[2] peace walk happened in Seoul, Korea to promote the peace through the world. This IPYG peace walk had happened across the world to promote the awareness of peace to global citizens. Among many IPYG peace walk, the biggest one was what held in Seoul, Korea with more than 20,000 participants from different countries. On that day, the Declaration of WORLD PEACE was read by Man Hee Lee, the Chairman of MANNAM Volunteer Association. There were also many peace leaders and many associations who had come together to join this peace walk to promote world peace.
One that day, IPYG peace walk showed how many people around the world desire for peace.

If all the youth of the world
come together and work for peace,
war will end and
world peace will become a REALITY.
