Sadly, we are in danger of forgetting the dark lessons of the past. In today\u2019s world of deep division, mistrust and conflict, we remain confronted by the enduring menace of this atrocious crime.This year\u2019s theme reminds us that the Convention and its timeless message must remain a living force in our world, calling us to uphold its solemn promise.Keeping this promise requires all governments ratifying and fully implementing the Convention, while ensuring that perpetrators are held to account.It requires a renewed global push to establish and strengthen prevention mechanisms, educate new generations about past genocides, and counter mis- and disinformation, which can fuel hate speech and genocidal intent and action.And it requires continuing to strengthen the efforts of the United Nations \u2014 including the work of my Special Advisor on the Prevention of Genocide \u2014 to identify early warning signs and sound the alarm.Together, let us translate our commitment into tangible action, and forever hold the memories of the victims and survivors of genocide in our hearts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UN SECRETARY-GENERAL MESSAGE FORTHE INTERNATIONAL DAY OFCOMMEMORATION AND DIGNITY OF THE VICTIMS OF THE CRIME OF GENOCIDE AND THE PREVENTION OF THIS CRIMENew York : Seventy-five years ago, in the&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":5236,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-international"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5235","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=5235"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5235\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5237,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5235\/revisions\/5237"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5236"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5235"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5235"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5235"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
