SGM expanded its efforts in promoting the abolition of nuclear weapons, first with the “Everything You Treasure – For a World Free from Nuclear Weapons” exhibition, created by Soka Gakkai International (SGI) and the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) that was launched locally in August 2015.

Over the years Run for Peace gained popularity and in 2019 it was held in 28 locations and witnessed participation from 120,000 people. This event is the key activity of SGM’s September Month of Peace during which SGM members make special efforts to raise awareness that peace begins with the individual. Run for Peace is also supported by the Ministry of Youth and Sports.

Less than a month later, the 50 ratifications to make the law enter into force globally was achieved, and on January 22, 2021, this historic treaty that makes nuclear weapons illegal officially entered into force.
SGM’s efforts were praised by various party, including the Malaysian foreign minister and ICAN.
SGM will continue to strive to create value and play its part in creating a peaceful, global community from Malaysia.
