What is International Day of Peace?
The International Day of Peace is a United Nations day, also called World Peace Day, which calls for 24 hours of ceasefire and non-violence around the world.

How the countdown works
The clock counts down to the 21st of September on your own device’s time, so it reaches zero at midnight where you are. When the day is over, it starts again for next year. Full screen puts it on a classroom board or a big screen. To count down to something of your own, enter it under Your own event.
