Tomorrow is the UN observance of the International Day of Living Together in Peace. This is perhaps one of the lesser known days of observance but it has been held on May 16 since 2018 having being enacted by Resolution in 2017.
It is important for two very clear reasons. Firstly, the UN itself was born from the ashes of the second world war and a universal desire not to go down that path again. To have an inter-governmental platform that would bring government representatives together to work towards common goals and to recognize stability as an underlying, fundamental requirement for a prosperous world.
Secondly, it is clear that without Peace, people cannot even begin to build the societies that we desire. The Day aims to uphold the desire to live and act together, united in differences and diversity, in order to build a sustainable world of peace, solidarity and harmony.
