LOS ANGELES - eTradeWire -- Scientology Network marks the United Nations International Day of Peace with a powerful marathon that highlights bold initiatives driving humanity toward a more just and peaceful future.

The urgency is undeniable. In 2024 alone, an estimated 120 million people were forcibly displaced by persecution, conflict, violence and human rights violations. Freedom in the World reports that political rights and civil liberties declined in 60 nations worldwide.

This year's observance—established by the UN General Assembly in 1981 and held every September 21—rings louder than ever. With the theme "Act Now for a Peaceful World," the marathon shines a spotlight on people and organizations taking real steps toward peace, dignity and human rights, including the global work of United for Human Rights. Their stories prove that every action matters—and that viewers themselves can play a role in building compassion and harmony in their own communities.

United for Human Rights, an international nonprofit dedicated to advancing the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, works with educators, groups and individuals worldwide to make human rights a reality for all.
