International Day of Peace 2026
On this International Day of Peace, YASID expresses our sincere appreciation to all peacebuilders, youth, community leaders, civil society organisations, Government, UN agencies and development partners working to promote peace and social cohesion.
In Cox’s Bazar, where host and Rohingya communities live alongside each other, building trust, understanding and peaceful coexistence requires continuous and meaningful engagement.
Over the years, YASID has contributed through music, theatre, dialogue and other youth-led activities, creating opportunities for local and Rohingya youth and youth organisations to connect, express themselves and strengthen their role as young peacebuilders.
We believe young people should not only participate in peacebuilding they should be meaningfully engaged as leaders and partners.
We encourage UN agencies, INGOs, Government and development partners to continue investing in youth-led initiatives, local organisations, meaningful host–Rohingya engagement and long-term social cohesion.
