Prof. Emeka Oguzie, President of the International Family Foundation (IFF), has arrived in Seoul, South Korea, in response to an invitation by Chairman Lee Man-hee of the Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration (HWPL). Prof. Oguzie is in Seoul to attend the 9th Anniversary of the September 18th HWPL World Peace Summit.

This three-day summit, stretching from September 18-20, 2023, is an international event devoted to exploring practical measures for achieving global peace.

HWPL’s acknowledgement of its partnership with the IFF hinges on the foundation’s dedication to peace education and its continued advocacy for sustainable peace.

The IFF firmly believes that there’s a growing global demand for peace to become an integral part of our everyday lives, reflecting in our cultural and social norms.

Three years ago, IFF members received comprehensive training from HWPL and were consequently certified as peace educators.

Dr. Edoja Ukwedeh, who leads the directorate, expressed gratitude for this recognition of the foundation’s endeavors towards peace education. He emphasized that the lack of peace poses a significant threat to humanity, leading to the devastation of lives and properties through wars and various conflicts.

This year’s HWPL ceremony aims to review the accomplishments of the past decade of its collaboration with governments, international bodies, and civil societies. It also plans to introduce a new plan of action for the forthcoming decade.

The Secretary-General of the Foundation is optimistic that a joint peace movement will lay the foundation for a more harmonious family, society, and world ultimately.

He asserted that the International Family Foundation will continue to intensify its peace education campaign and urged for increased support towards this significant endeavor.
