The right to live in peace is a fundamental human right, according to UNESCO (See: unesco.org). This is the international dimension of the right to life, as said by Karel Vasak. "It's the most basic right," Amnesty International has touted, without which no rights would exist. Without peace there is no chance of life to many dead there are no human rights. All international crimes (genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes) have been committed by violations of the right to peace. Also the massacres against the defenseless civilian population. As simple as that.
Just as the right to life as human beings, which protects us throughout the lifecycle, i.e. from conception to death, the right to peace includes not killing anyone and allow the birth of any person, regardless of race, nationality, ethnicity, religion, social class, political group or any faith they profess their parents. We can speak of peace because we are alive, and while we are alive, the conflict is the worst threat of this right and all other rights. Peace is a continuation of the right to life at a planetary mass level.
The doctrine of human rights, compulsory in Venezuela under the Constitution, provides that the right to peace is non-discriminatory, universal, indivisible, and inviolable in guarantee mandatory by the State and its officers, equal and interdependent with all other rights.
In 1981, the UN General Assembly declared the opening day of its regular session in September would be "officially proclaimed and observed as International Day of Peace."
