“War is not the answer. We need a way out of this disaster.”

UN Secretary-General António Guterres reiterates his call for an immediate end to the war in the Middle East.

“Diplomacy is the way out. Full respect of international law is the way out. Peace is the way out.”

The United Nations General Assembly has declared the transatlantic slave trade the gravest crime against humanity.

In a resolution adopted this week, UN member countries highlight the horrors of slavery — millions of African men, women and children forcibly captured and trafficked in one of the largest systems of organized mass human exploitation in history.

The resolution calls for justice, human rights, dignity and healing — emphasising that reparations are a concrete step towards addressing historical wrongs and confronting the profound and lasting legacies of racism and inequality.

"Human rights are not only what we defend - they are what lifts the world to a better place."

As the Human Rights Council gets underway at UN Geneva, these words from the UN Secretary-General resonate as strongly as ever.

"On this , we are reminded that foresight saves lives.

Climate chaos is rewriting the rules of weather, with record heat, longer droughts, rising seas and ever more frequent and extreme disasters. Accurate, trusted science is our first line of defence.

By observing today, we can protect tomorrow – for people, for planet, for prosperity, and for generations to come."

- United Nations Secretary-General

"Racism harms us all.

It persists in the damaging consequences of enslavement, colonialism, and oppression."
