The PPF 2020 is a joint initiative of the Gangwon Provincial Government, PyeongChang Municipality and the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) which is one of the peace legacy projects to commemorate the PyeongChang Peace Spirit demonstrated during the 2018 winter Olympics. The PyeongChang 2018 Legacy Foundation was founded in May 2019 for that purpose. Participants from CSOs will discuss how to create synergies among various campaigns and initiatives about peace and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in the context of the 75th anniversary of the UN. These include: Stand Together Now Campaign (www.StandTogetherNow.net), UN 2020 campaign (www.UN2020.org)and the Global Watch initiative, (https://www.globalpolicywatch.org/). The draft framework of PyeongChang Agenda for Peace (PCAP) 2030 will be further discussed and adopted as a tool for CSOs to mainstream peace into the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in the decade of accelerated action of the SDGs (2021-2030).
