Statement of the United Nations Secretary-General on the World Tsunami Awareness Day 2023; November 5th.
By breaking down barriers, fighting inequality and addressing the climate crisis, we can build resilience and ensure everyone has the opportunity to thrive, even in the face of nature’s mightiest challenges. On World Tsunami Awareness Day, let us commit to leaving no one behind when a tsunami strikes, and work together to secure a safe, prosperous future for all.
Help communities to engage in action that both reduces risk and readies us for the future.
