About Peace Day  

Each year, the International Day of Peace is observed around the world on September 21st. The United Nations General Assembly has declared this day as a day devoted to strengthening the ideas of peace, both within and among all nations and peoples.

The Hawaii Federation of Junior Young Buddhist Association submitted a resolution to establish a Hongwanji Peace Day to the Honpa Hongwanji Mission of Hawaii Legislative Assembly in 2007. On April 18, 2007, Governor Linda Lingle signed the bill making Hawaii the first state in the United States to recognize September 21 as Peace Day.
