The International Day of Non-Violence is observed on Monday, with the objective of spreading the message of non-violence through education and public awareness.
In his message on this occasion, Secretary-General António Guterres emphasized the pressing challenges confronting humanity today. These challenges encompass rising inequalities, heightened tensions, escalating conflicts, and the worsening climate crisis.
He underscored that we have the potential to surmount these afflictions and steer towards a more promising and peaceful future. This can be achieved by recognizing that the diverse tapestry of our human family is not a threat but a valuable treasure.
