Soka Gakkai International Association (SGI) Calls for a Department of Peace
Tony Meers, the Executive Director, states that that SGI is very happy to work with CPA (formerly CDPI), “united in our resolve to achieve global peace and… that someday soon Canada will join with those nations that have established a ministry or department of peace.”
In 1988, SGI President Diasaku Ikeda made a proposal to the UN calling on all countries to establish a ministry of peace as a far-sighted initiative to foster a global current of popular opinion for disarmament.
