Peace is not something that we only hope for when two countries are fighting. Even within a country, within a society peace should exist if we are to live harmoniously together. Understanding violence in all forms, not just physical, and acknowledging our role in perpetuating certain ideas and actions against our fellow humans is a big step towards choosing to be peaceful.

Attaining equality for all its citizens should be a goal for every democratic country.

These policies have to address the concerns and needs of every section, every individual that needs help to uplift themselves.
