Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) Zimbabwe Peace Lecture

On the 14th of March 2018, the Federation of indigenous Churches in Zimbabwe ,lawmakers and civil society joined the global community to formalise an action plan for the adoption of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) by states in Southern Africa as a legally binding and enforceable law at an International Law Conference.

Said Reverend Mathias Tsine of the Federation of Indigenous Churches in Zimbabwe:

As religious leaders in our diversity and from various religions, we should preach the message of peace. This does not matter whether one is from Islam or Hinduism, peace and religious tolerance promotes development. As the church and the Christian movement, we encourage everyone to spread the message of love, peace and hope in everything we do, particularly in politics. Zimbabwe is on the verge of holding historic harmonised elections in about three months from now. It is our hope that the period immediately prior, during and after elections will be largely peaceful so that we show to the world that the country is prepared to sustain the peaceful transition that recently took place following the resignation of former President Mugabe.

Calling for peace, love, peace, unity and harmony

Following the violence that resulted in the death of six people in Harare after the 2018 elections, Bishop Gift Marufu of the Federation of Indigenous Churches in Zimbabwe called upon all citizens to maintain peace, unity and harmony despite the outcome of the Constitutional Court ruling.[1]
