To mark the international day of peace – also known as Peace One Day - The Drum worked with Phil Jones of Podge lunch fame and launched what has become known as its Truce Commission.
In terms of the big picture, Peace One Day is all about persuading those engaged in hot wars across the world to agree to some form of ceasefire, to help the wounded get out, the medics get in and perhaps get some dialogue going.
But it is important we too lead by example. If the design profession can’t put aside its petty rivalry, what hope is there for persuading those with more fundamental differences?
So the idea for our Truce Commission was born.
