Say 'Hello' to strangers you pass in the street, try to make them smile... |
Hold a stall and sell locally made products, the proceeds could be donated to a charity/aid agency, or to sponsor a child. |

Organise your friends to hold a Peace Party, organise or attend a Peace Day event in your community. |
Invite someone who has migrated to Australia from a conflict zone, to be a guest speaker at your next meeting, and ask them how your community or organisation can best help the refugee or migrant's home community. |
Peace accords, brokered before September 21, could be 'signed off' on the International Day of Peace. |
|
Slow down on the roads, let someone into traffic ahead of you. |
Our singing group is going to be part of a concert which our local council has organised to commemorate the day. Sarah, Australia |
Schools in peaceful societies could identify schools in conflict zones and send them commemorative messages. For example students could write messages of peace into origami doves and send them to schools in conflict zones. | Translation for 140 languages by ALS
