The Making Of World Peace Day – The Book

Proof that one person can make a difference

One day, a light bulb went off in Jeremy Gilley's head: there should be one day each year when the world stops fighting and celebrates peace. And he did much more than just think about it. He travelled the globe, meeting with leaders such as Kofi Annan, Amre Moussa, Shimon Peres and His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Jeremy's enthusiasm and tireless efforts convinced the governments of the world to establish a day of a ceasefire and non-violence that would fall on September 21 every year.
This amazing story touches on the causes of war, what would happen on a ceasefire day, ways to promote peace on September 21, and most importantly, how a single person can make a difference in the world.
