In a world often characterized by chaos, discrimination, inequality, and an unjust social order, it is crucial that we stand firm in our commitment to creating safe spaces for youth. By mobilizing their innate knowledge and experiences, we can empower young people to drive social change and embrace their social responsibility.

As we enter ‘Disarmament Week’—a period dedicated to promoting peace and reducing the proliferation of arms—we approach this initiative with utmost sincerity. This week serves as a poignant reminder of our collective responsibility to sustain peace in our societies while fostering global solidarity for a harmonious future.

In solidarity with the United Nations, civil society organizations, various youth groups, and ministries, we are mobilizing students around the globe to advocate for a more just and equitable social order that respects the rights of every individual. We recognize that youth are not just the leaders of tomorrow but are active agents of change today. Their voices are vital in the dialogue surrounding peace and justice, and their contributions are essential in shaping a more equitable world.

As the United Nations commemorates its foundation day, we reaffirm our commitment to several critical issues that align with the UN’s mission. We pledge to advocate for the sustainability of human rights, champion climate justice, protect the rights of indigenous peoples, promote women’s empowerment, and strive for gender equity. These principles are not merely goals; they are the foundation upon which we can build a better society for all.

Together, we can foster an inclusive environment where every voice is heard and every individual has the opportunity to thrive. By working collaboratively across borders and disciplines, we can harness the collective strength of our diverse communities to create lasting change.

Let us unite in our efforts to build a better future for our people. It is only through our shared commitment and collaborative action that we can truly honor the ideals of the United Nations and pave the way for a more peaceful and just world.
