国际和平共处日

和平共处的要义在于接受差异，能够倾听、了解、尊重和欣赏他人，以和平、团结的方式共同生活。

联合国大会第72/130号决议确定5月16日为“国际和平共处日”，并将其作为定期动员国际社会促进和平、宽容、理解和团结的途径。这一天旨在弘扬和平共存、协同行动的愿景，面对差异和多样性保持团结一致，以期建设一个和平、团结、和谐的可持续世界。

（……）这一国际日提醒我们：维护和平与非暴力的事业任重道远，因为这从来都不是一劳永逸的，而是需要不断建设的。在最可怕的战争之后成立的教科文组织的宗旨所在，就是通过教育、科学、信息和文化这些公益事业，于人之思想中构建和平。

In his message on the International Day of Living Together in Peace, Mr. Muhammad Bande said that “COVID-19 poses a serious threat to the maintenance of international peace and security. The UN has called for a global ceasefire to work together on the actual fight – defeating the pandemic. It is time to silence the guns and bring hope to those who are most vulnerable.”
