70th Anniversary of UNESCO in Tribute to Nelson Mandela

Address on the occasion of the launching ceremony of the Celebration of the 70th Anniversary of UNESCO in Tribute to Nelson Mandela

“The world we live in today is a very different world from the one that existed 70 years ago. But, I would say that UNESCO is needed more than ever before. Inequalities amongst peoples of the world sadly remain. The gap between those that "have" and those that "have not" remains; this gap is widening now throughout the entire globe. (…) Today, UNESCO’s mission is best defined as the eternal search for humanism within humankind.”
