Secretary-General's Message for 24 October 2021

Courtesy, United Nations

"Seventy-six years ago, the United Nations was created as a vehicle of hope for a world emerging from the shadow of catastrophic conflict.

Today, the women and men of the UN carry this hope forward around the globe.

COVID-19, conflicts, hunger, poverty and the climate emergency remind us that our world is far from perfect.

But they also make clear that solidarity is the only way forward.

We need to come together to tackle great challenges and advance the Sustainable Development Goals.

By ensuring that every person, everywhere, has access to COVID-19 vaccines sooner rather than later.

By securing and upholding the rights and dignity of all people — especially the poorest and most disadvantaged, girls and women, and children and young people.

By seeking an end to the conflicts that scar our world.

By making bold climate commitments to save our planet — and living up to them.

And by building global governance that is more inclusive, networked and effective — as detailed in my recent report, Our Common Agenda.

The values that have powered the UN Charter for the last 76 years — peace, development, human rights, and opportunity for all — have no expiry date.

As we mark UN Day, let’s unite behind these ideals, and live up to the full promise, potential and hope of the United Nations."

The United Nations is one of Humanity's key components making a distinct and significant difference in the process of achieving a secure, peaceful and healthy environment wherein distressed populations can be safely provisioned for with humanitarian assistance and development toward a viable life of sustainability with human rights, freedom and dignity.

Since its inception in 1945, the United Nations has been an indispensable peacekeeping force throughout troubled areas around the world. And in the 21st Century, the United Nations yet holds fast to its peacekeeping responsibilities and principles for the preservation of populations beset by hostilities, extreme poverty, famine and other adversities.

The United Nations blue Helmet presence has made - and is yet making - a firm peacekeeping stance with intentions of ensuring a safe environment for the furtherance of human development toward sustainability now . . . and for many generations to come.
