Foundation.
Chairman Man Hee Lee. Founder of HWPL |
HWPL was founded
by Mr. Man Hee Lee, a veteran of the Korean war who experienced the real war and fought in the
front line and has not forgotten the tragedy which he and his fellow soldiers
suffered during the war. He is known to
mention that “We should do what we can do for world peace.” Despite his old age, 86, he has dedicated all
his life to achieve world peace.
World peace.
So far, Mr. Man Hee Lee has
traveled all over the world 26 times just in 4 years and meeting with heads of the states, religious leaders, media, women
and youth to plant the seed of peace in their hearts and share the solution that can bring cessation of wars. He
overcomes the jet leg and takes a plane more than 20 hours.
Mr. Man Hee Lee also proclaimed
the declaration of world peace in order to instill the awareness of peace to all
global He is now recognized as an
advocate of world peace by people in the world.
HWPL’s purpose for cessation of war and
world peace:
- Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW), drafted by 21 renowned legal experts, is made of 10 articles that form necessary pillars to realise peace society, the the reason for struggling to make the implementation of International Law on Cessation War to come true the world peace.
- The alliance of religions with World Alliance of Religions Peace (WARP) office.
- To leave a peace as an inheritance for future generation, we must become Peace Messengers for the same goal, world peace.
THE INTERNATIONAL PEACE YOUTH GROUP(IYPG)
We, as tomorrow’s
decision-makers, must raise awareness towards peace and speak up our voices. Particularly,
IPYG to ensure peace and cessation of war through DPCW, we are supporting and
promoting it.
IPYG has vision s based on five
missions. It is decided by the Declaration of World peace proclaimed by the
chairman Lee of HWPL in 2013.
Vision.
1. For youth to protect
themselves from threats around the world. (violence and conflicts)
2. For youth to leave as
legacy/inheritance future generation. (We are Tomorrow’s Decision-Makers
Mission.
1. To unite as one through the
IPYG
2. To harmonize transcending
race, religion, ideology
3. To empower the youth(youth
empowerment)
4. To spread peace education
5. To be the pioneers for peace
culture
In favor of his saying, to speak up our voices to the world, we should
unite as one through the IPYG.
And, people refuse to acknowledge
each difference and it could lead them to cause wars after all. The world is
caught a vicious circle over and over. There are a number of wars caused by
religion, actually. So, we’ve been trying to bring harmony by attending HWPL
WARP office.
Youth should be empowered to make
voices for the future they want. Whoever
should be noteworthy the peace since the childhood then they can know how
important peace is and further it can spread over the world. Therefore, we
foster the peace by spreading peace education.
