In his New Year’s message for 2025, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called on nations worldwide to join forces and promote unity in the face of global challenges.
Speaking on Monday, Guterres emphasized the importance of coming together to address issues such as climate change, inequality, and conflicts that continue to divide the world. “In a time when division seems to be the norm, we must work harder than ever to bridge gaps and build a more united world,” he said.
The UN chief urged young people to be catalysts for change, encouraging them to use their voices and actions to foster understanding and cooperation across borders. “The future lies in the hands of the youth. It’s up to you to shape a world where unity prevails over division,” Guterres added.
As 2025 begins, the call for global solidarity resonates deeply, especially in the Global South, where communities often face the brunt of global issues. Guterres’s message serves as a reminder that only through collective effort can lasting solutions be found.
