Nepal, too, has been marking the day since 2002 by organizing various activities. 


On the occasion today, various organizations, including Human Rights and Peace Society (HURPES) and The Story Kitchen (TSK) are hosting programs to assert global peace. 


It has been demanded that peace should begin from each individual for global peace and that all countries should enable the environment to that end.
