Building
Back Together for Peace and Prosperity
A symbol of
hope for global unity
United Nations Day, on 24 October,
marks the anniversary of the day in 1945 when the UN Charter entered into
force. UN Day, celebrated every year, offers the opportunity to amplify our
common agenda and reaffirm the purposes and principles of the UN Charter that
have guided us for the past 76 years. Usually held in the General Assembly Hall
of the Organization, at Headquarters in New York, a concert is held to mark UN
Day. As the world begins gradually to
recover from the Covid-19 pandemic, the 2021 Concert represents a call to
strengthen international cooperation in the interest of both nations and
peoples, for a more peaceful and prosperous future for all.
