No borders. No divisions.
Just people coming together.
UNV on International Day of Human Fraternity; February 4th.
Standing together in unity and solidarity.
As our world faces a global human crisis, as the pandemic exposed deep-seated inequalities, we are reminded every day of our common fragility and our interconnected fate. There is no alternative to standing together in unity and solidarity in inclusive societies. With its motto, “Many Cultures, One Humanity,” UNAOC was created to embrace and promote cultural diversity, religious pluralism and mutual respect.
Secretary-General's message for the International Day of Human Fraternity 2024; February 4th.
On this International Day of Human Fraternity, we celebrate the spirit of mutual respect and solidarity that binds us together as one human family.
Today, these values are being severely tested. Our world is marred by divisions, conflicts, and inequalities. Discrimination is running rampant.
We must come together to protect and uphold human rights, combat hate speech and violent extremism, and push back against those who profit from fear.
We can take inspiration from the declaration “Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” – co-authored by His Holiness Pope Francis and His Eminence the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar Sheikh Ahmed El Tayeb – to work towards a world where dialogue, compassion, and human dignity prevail.
Let us reaffirm our commitment to bridging divides, fostering religious understanding and cooperation among people of all cultures and beliefs.
Together, let us forge a path towards a more peaceful, just and harmonious world for all.
On February 4th, the International Day of Human Fraternity 2024 will be commemorated at UNHQ.
In commemoration of the 2024 International Day of Human Fraternity, the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) is organizing a vir
Co-facilitated by Egypt and the United Arab Emirates, the resolution acknowledges initiatives fostering interreligious and intercultural dialogue. Notably, it recognizes the historic meeting on February 4, 2019, between His Holiness Pope Francis and His Eminence the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmad al-Tayeb, in Abu Dhabi, UAE, which led to the signing of the “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together.” The resolution also encourages all Member States to actively promote a culture of peace, tolerance, inclusion, understanding, and solidarity.
Celebrating human fraternity and its underlying principles — including mutual respect, cultural and religious diversity, and the promotion of intercultural and interreligious dialogue — serves as a poignant reminder of the shared values that unite us as one humanity. This spirit has become especially crucial in these troubled times marked by divisions along religious, ethnic, and cultural lines. The rise of religious animosity, stigma, and various forms of discrimination against vulnerable communities, not only violates human rights and UN values, but also poses a serious threat to international peace and security efforts.
The upcoming virtual event will provide an opportunity to highlight the principles and values included in the Document of Human Fraternity and renew our joint commitment to promoting mutual respect, religious and cultural diversity and advancing dialogue.

Secretary-General's remarks to the Security Council on ‘The Values of Human Fraternity in Promoting and Sustaining Peace’.
Madame President, Excellencies,
I thank the Government of the United Arab Emirates for convening this important debate on the values of human fraternity in promoting and sustaining peace.
It is an immense privilege to be joined today by His Eminence Ahmed Al-Tayeb, the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar Al-Sharif, and His Excellency Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher, Secretary for Relations with States of the Holy See.
I also extend a warm welcome to Latifa Ibn Ziaten, briefing on behalf of civil society.
Faith leaders are vital allies in our shared quest for global peace.
My esteemed predecessor Dag Hammarskjöld once observed that, and I quote: “The United Nations stands outside – necessarily outside – all confessions, but it is, nevertheless, an instrument of faith. As such it is inspired by what unites and not by what divides the great religions of the world.”
Every great faith summons the imperatives of human fraternity, mutual respect and understanding.
These universal values animate the United Nations Charter and are at the core of our work for peace, justice and human rights.
