Objectives

At the same time, the year 2024 marks forty years since the Declaration on the Right of Peoples to Peace (A/RES/39/11, 11 November 1984) and the preparation for the International Year of Peace and Trust, 2025 (A/RES/78/266), both resolutions being directly linked to the development of human rights in an environment of awareness for peace against violence.

Considering the current moment of global political instability with repercussions in all areas of the social and intellectual domain, it is proposed that the “Conference on the Right of Peoples to Peace” be held, allowing for a broad debate on issues related to the theme, such as, for example, the culture of peace, sense of peace in restricted system, human rights, democracy and governance, documenta)on and methods, education, etc.
