Unveiling of "The Best Weapon" at UN Headquarters
Caption Description
An event to unveil a new installation titled ""The Best Weapon"", a tool for dialogue in form of a bench, at the visitors entrance to the UN Headquarters. The bench designed by Snøhetta, is inspired by Nelson Mandela and engraved on it is his quote; ""The best weapon is to sit down and talk."" As a symbol of diplomacy and dialogue, the peace bench pays tribute to the Nobel Peace Prize laureates and their effort to bring people together in order to find effective solutions for peace.
Sitting on the bench, among others, are Mona Juul (third from left), Permanent Representative of Norway to the United Nations; Mmamoloko Kubayi-Ngubane (centre), Minister of Tourism of the Republic of South Africa; Maria Luiza Ribeiro Viotti (third from right), Chef de Cabinet to Secretary-General António Guterres; and Jerry Matthews Matjila (right), Permanent Representative of the Republic of South Africa to the United Nations.
