Headline 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.
Mona Juul (second from right), Permanent Representative of Norway to the United Nations, cuts a ribbon to mark the unveiling together with Jerry Matthews Matjila (third from right), Permanent Representative of the Republic of South Africa to the United Nations, and Mmamoloko Kubayi-Ngubane (fourth from right), Minister of Tourism of the Republic of South Africa.
