In the name of peace
Canadian Geographic
|September/October 2020
75 years ago, countries across the globe agreed to a newfound framework as the United Nations
“WE THE PEOPLES OF THE UNITED NATIONS determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war … to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women and of nations large and small.” —Preamble to the Charter of the United Nations, 1945
The United Nations officially came into existence on October 24, 1945, in response to the Second World War, a devastating conflict that left an estimated 70 million civilians and soldiers dead, saw a cultural genocide that claimed the lives of six million Jews and displaced millions more, and blew European empires to pieces.
