A member of the Tarumi Violin Program performs during the Peace Bell Ceremony on the occasion of the International Day of Peace 2024 (21 September). The theme of the International Day of Peace 2024 is Cultivating a Culture of Peace.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the United Nations General Assembly’s adoption of the Declaration and Programme of Action on a Culture of Peace. In that declaration the Assembly recognized that peace “not only is the absence of conflict, but also requires a positive, dynamic participatory process where dialogue is encouraged and conflicts are solved in a spirit of mutual understanding and cooperation.”

The Tarumi Violin Program, founded in 1986, is composed of talented young musicians from the Greater New York Metropolitan area.
Josh Jorgensen (at podium) from Centre for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC), briefs reporters on "A Call to Action for International Humanitarian Law and the Protection of Civilians".

At left is Lisa Doughten, Director of Financing and Partnerships Division of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), and at right is Andrea Canepa from the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).

Standing at the press briefing area are 75-year-old chairs symbolizing “the seat of duty”. The gesture emphasizes the Security Council’s unique role as custodian of international peace and security, responsible for upholding and promoting international humanitarian law and responsible to protect vulnerable groups. Each chair portrays one letter of the message “War has limits” and symbolizes the collective responsibility to uphold international humanitarian law. Empty chairs symbolize the courageous presence of humanitarian workers at the front line, often risking their own safety to provide aid and protection. International humanitarian law is crystal clear: We must protect and respect UN and humanitarian personnel.

The meeting first heard an introductory statement by the UNRWA Commissioner General and held a question-and-answer period and general debate on the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East.

Headline A Digital Future For All Event during Summit of the Future Action Day Two 
Caption Description Master of Ceremonies Sade Baderinwa, Eyewitness News Anchor at ABC News, speaks during the event “A Digital Future For All”.

‘A Digital Future For All’ brings forward-looking commitments from all stakeholders to harness innovation, science and data in a more inclusive, safe and sustainable manner. Initial sessions will demonstrate how digital technologies and game-changing solutions can lay the groundwork for a more sustainable, inclusive, and responsible future. The morning session propels participants forward into the future, encouraging exploration of the trends, risks, and opportunities presented by digital and emerging technologies on our journey forward.

The event is taking place during Action Day 2 ahead of the Summit of the Future. Action Day 2 coincides with International Day of Peace, and focuses on multistakeholder partnership and action – paving a way towards a next chapter of multilateralism that is more inclusive and networked. To achieve this, the Action Day 2 is addressing three priority themes: A Digital Future for All; A Peaceful Future for All; and A Sustainable Future for All.

The Summit of the Future offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity for change. It will pave a way to a better tomorrow that we can only shape together. In support of this vision and objectives, the Secretary-General of the United Nations is convening the Summit of the Future Action Days on 20 and 21 September 2024 to generate additional opportunities for the engagement of all actors.
