2007:

Africa Peace Point in conjunction with a group of NGOs, including PeaceNet, religious organizations as well as grassroot initiatives working in Nairobi and its environs held the 8th annual Nairobi International Peace March, walking from Kiberia to Uhuru Park on the 15th of September 2007. This year's theme was “Towards a More Inclusive Society”. The national commemorations took place at Uhuru Park on the International Day of Peace, attended by H.E the President and other political leaders. A peace charter was signed and a peace torch lit to be used to advocate for peace throughout the country.

District Peace Committees (DPCs) in Kenya's North Rift Valley Province, consisting of chairpersons, women, youth, and civil society representatives, held processions culminating in tree planting events. Following these, communities were invited to open forums for discussion spearheaded by the District Commissioners. Peace icons were identified and honored by the DPCs from amongst community members. Each district endeavored to light a “peace torch” as a symbol of peace.

The National Council of Churches organized a peacebuilding workshop on September 20th which was attended by Muslim and Christian leaders. On September 21st a Peace Campaign was launched (Choose Peace, Avoid Chaos). The President of the Republic, Mwai Kibaki, was there as the Chief Guest, who launched five doves as a sign of Peace. *

2005:

Africa Peace Point and the organizing committee of the Nairobi Peace Rally, an initiative of a group of Peace NGOs in Nairobi, organized the Nairobi International Peace Rally on September 17th at the Uhuru Park Grounds. The theme of the celebrations were “Towards Justice and Equity”, which evoked the idea of different players in the civil society and the public working together with the state to entrench the values of justice and equity at local, regional and international levels.

World Peace Prayer Society (WPPS) Representatives of the Kenyan military, and international diplomats stationed in Nairobi joined United Nations staff members at the UN's African headquarters in Gigiri, Nairobi, to commemorate the International Day of Peace. The focus of the UN-sponsored celebration of the International Day of Peace in Kenya was the contribution made by the people and Government of Kenya to peace in the region, and for their important role in the UN's peacekeeping work across the globe. Participants in the celebrations included Kenyan military officers, led by Major General Njuki Mwaniki, and civil society representatives from the Peace process which resulted in the cessation of hostilities  between North and South Sudan. Also invited were schoolchildren from the Nairobi area who had written messages of support to Kenyan peacekeepers currently involved in nine different peacekeeping operations around the world. Some of the letters were read out by the children before they presented them to General Mwaniki for forwarding to the peacekeepers.
