From Ukraine, to Sudan, the Middle East, and far beyond, war is creating a hellscape of destruction, destitution, and fear. Inequality and climate chaos are undermining the foundations of peace. And hate whipped up online is spilling over onto the streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last month\u2019s Summit of the Future offered hope. Countries came together to lay the groundwork for a renewed multilateralism, equipped to support peace in a changing world. That includes a renewed focus on the underlying causes of conflict \u2013 from inequality to poverty and division. Now we need countries to transform those commitments into reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gandhi believed non-violence was the greatest force available to humanity \u2013 more powerful than any weapon. Together, let\u2019s build institutions to support that noble vision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNITED NATIONS SECRETARY-GENERAL MESSAGE THE SECRETARY-GENERAL MESSAGE FOR THE INTERNATIONAL DAY OF NON-VIOLENCE 2October 2024 New York :&nbsp; On the International Day of Non-Violence, we commemorate the birthday of Mahatma&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":17944,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[436],"class_list":["post-17943","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-international","tag-un-secretary-general"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17943","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=17943"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17943\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17945,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17943\/revisions\/17945"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/17944"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=17943"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=17943"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=17943"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
