The Japanese Peace Bell is a United Nations peace symbol. Cast on November 24, 1952, it was an official gift of the Japanese people to the United Nations on June 8, 1954. The symbolic bell of peace was donated by Japan to the United Nations at a time when Japan had not yet been officially
admitted to the United Nations. The Japanese Peace Bell
was presented to the United Nations by the
United Nations Association of Japan.

2023 THEME: Actions for peace: Our
ambition for the #GlobalGoals
As we mark this International Day of Peace, people and our planet are in crisis.
Conflicts driving record numbers of people from their homes. Deadly fires, raging floods and soaring temperatures. Poverty, inequalities and injustices. Mistrust, division and prejudice.
This year’s theme reminds us that peace is not automatic. Peace is the result of action.
Action to accelerate progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals and ensure that no one is left behind.
Action to end the war on our planet and its natural gifts.
Action to uphold and protect the human rights and dignity of every person — especially as we celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Action to use the timeless tools of diplomacy, dialogue and collaboration to defuse tensions and end conflict. And action for those millions of people living through the horrors of war.
Peace is not only a noble vision for humanity. Peace is a call to action.
Let us commit to build, drive and sustain peace for all.
