On Tuesday's #HolocaustRemembrance Day, we honour the memory of all those who perished in the Holocaust & the enduring legacy of those who survived.

Today & every day, we must counter antisemitism, Holocaust denial & distortion and all forms of hatred.

This year, Nigerian spoken word artist and poet Maryam Bukar Hassan was named the UN’s first Global Advocate for Peace.

“Peace is not a silence you force into people’s mouths.
It is not the absence of war.
It is the presence of understanding.”

– @Alhan_islam

This year, the UN family mourned the loss of our beloved Messenger of Peace, Jane Goodall.
