The place where Humanity’s stories of real people and events continue to be told together with Environmental concerns around the world.
In the 21st Century and new Millennium, Nations great and small must – as never before – intently focus on the full spectrum of Humanitarian and Environmental concerns that affect every facet of life globally.
Although the world has become smaller, more technologically advanced and interconnected, bigger and unprecedented challenges are constant reminders that our world must be "secured, improved and sustained" far into the future for all of Humanity including our planetary environment.
Regarding our world and the
much needed
WORK TO BE DONE,
“Partnerships”

UN Secretary-General António Guterres
Expressed Deepest Condolences
February 22, 2021
The Italian Ambassador to the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), a World Food Programme (WFP) staff member, together with an Italian embassy official, were killed on Monday during an attack on a UN convoy in the east of the country, the agency has said.
UN Secretary-General António Guterres, expressed his deepest condolences to the families of the deceased, as well as to the Governments of Italy and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in a statement issued later on Monday.
"He further expresses his full solidarity with the WFP colleagues and
the entire United Nations team in the country. Mr. Guterres called
on the Government of the DRC "to investigate swiftly this
heinous targeting of a United Nations joint field mission
and to bring the perpetrators to justice." He made it
clear that the UN would continue to support the
Government and people, "in their efforts to bring
about peace and stability in the east of the country."
Italian Ambassador to the DRC, Luca Attanasio

UN General Assembly - 75th Anniversary
January 10, 1946 - January 10, 2021
"Excellencies, I am delighted to address this commemoration of the General Assembly’s first meeting that took place in this very Hall 75 years ago today.
Since that initial meeting, the General Assembly has met in 75 sessions to discuss and act on the topics that matter most to our people. The General Assembly has evolved. It has grown from 51 members to 193 today. But it still remains a shining example of multilateralism where every country, no matter how big or small, gets one equal vote. And it remains a sanctuary where nations can peacefully address their differences and find solutions to global challenges.
As we recover from COVID-19 and move together towards a greener, more equitable world, we will continue to be guided and inspired by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Over the past 75 years, we have achieved more together than we could have apart. As we move into the next 75 years and our world becomes ever more connected, let us tighten those bonds, so we can best protect and deliver for the peoples we serve. Thank you."

EPACHA Foundation Wishes . . .
A Happy New Year!

The year 2020 deeply impacted its mark of
unprecedented events the world did not
expect - and was not prepared for.
With the widespread devastation of the
Corona Virus [COVID-19] Global Pandemic,
Nations great and small shall never be the
same. Nor shall everyday communities of
families & friends around the world revert to a
way of life so familiar but now so estranged.
The lessons learned from so great an impact
as the COVID-19 pandemic can be viewed
as a monumental wake-up call that
demands answers in terms of
preparedness for the unexpected
and unanticipated. Scaling from local
communities to top-level national leadership, a
certain fact cannot be denied: There certainly is
MUCH WORK TO BE DONE!
Global responsibilities are heightened
with stark realities that compel well-planned,
coordinated efforts for successful results.
As COVID-19 has made global history,
so must historic impacts for the whole of
Humanity's overall well-being toward
sustainability within a healthy
environment become that most
important priority for the
NEW YEAR: 2021!
- EPACHA Foundation -
