ㅇ

There are two perspectives on peace: a passive view and an active view.

  Passive Peace means the absence of war.
ㅇ
Many have claimed that an active peace is required. We can't expect true peace with a passive peace mindset where peace is an absence of war.
 

Active peace means that because the basic human needs are satisfied and justice exists, there is no war.

ㅇ

The UN General Assembly held in 1978 defined peace as not simply a state without war or physical violence but a state with justice. This is an active peace.

ㅇ
We can learn from history that true peace prevents war from occurring again. The key to maintaining the absence of war lies in the formation of a society where basic human rights, desires and justice are embodied.
ㅇ

One definition of the Island of World Peace is a "cultural, social and political system which includes ideas and policies that leads to the practice of an active peace, the state of being free from all elements of threat".
It is a series of processes to create, spread and build an active peace by forming an intellectual, personal and physical network among the members of its society
