The project “to make 2024 a year of building trust and hope for all that we can achieve together”, expresses the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres in his New Year message.

Referring to 2023points out that it was a year of immense pain, violence and climate chaos. “Humanity is hurting. Our planet is in danger. 2023 is the hottest year on record. People are crushed by increasing poverty and hunger. Wars are increasing in number and ferocity. And trust is in short supply. But pointing fingers and threatening guns gets nowhere. Humanity is stronger when we are united” says its Secretary General UN.

As far as the 2024suggests that it should be a year of rebuilding trust and restoring hope. “We must unite above our differences to find common solutions. For climate action. For economic opportunity and a fairer global financial system that works for everyone. Together, we must resist the discrimination and hatred that poisons relations between countries and communities. We must ensure that new technologies such as artificial intelligence are a force for good” notes.

In this context, Antonio Guterres assures that the United Nations they will continue to rally the world for peace, sustainable development and human rights.

Finally, he wishes a happy and peaceful new year.
