Desde 1964, para conmemorar la muerte de Gandhi, se celebra el 30 de enero el Día Escolar de la No Violencia y la Paz, reconocido por la UNESCO en 1993. En esta fecha se recuerda la necesidad de la educación para la tolerancia, la solidaridad, el respeto a los Derechos Humanos, la no violencia y la paz. El lema de este día es: 'amor universal, no-violencia y paz. El amor universal es mejor que el egoísmo, la no-violencia es mejor que la violencia y la paz es mejor que la guerra'. [Cita del ITE]
