Pastoral da Criança, an entity linked to the Catholic Church, explained well what peace is: “Peace is not just the absence of war between countries. Peace is ensuring that all people have housing, food, clothing, education, health, love and understanding, that is, a good quality of life. Peace is taking care of the environment in which we live, guaranteeing good water quality, basic sanitation, clean air, and good use of the land. Peace is seeking serenity within us to live the good times with joy, having strength and good ideas to face problems and solve difficulties. All this without having to run away. Above all, peace is creating a climate of harmony and well-being in the family and community.”
