A UN resolution established the International Day

of Peace in 1981 to coincide with the opening of the

UN General Assembly. The first Peace Day was

celebrated in 1982 and was held on the third

Tuesday of September each year until 2002, when

September 21 became the permanent date for the

International Day of Peace. The assembly decided in

2001 that the International Day of Peace should be annually

observed on September 21 starting from 2002. By setting a

fixed date for the International Day of Peace, the assembly declared that

the day should be observed as a day of global ceasefire and non-violence.

SYMBOL

The peace dove flying with an olive branch in its beak is one of the most commonly featured symbols for the day
