Today, we mark the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons.

As world leaders gather in New York for the UN General Assembly, the need for urgent action to eliminate nuclear weapons has never been greater.

A dangerous nuclear arms race is under way, and the risk of nuclear weapons use – whether deliberate or accidental – is as high today as it has ever been.

Today nine nations still possess the ultimate weapons of mass destruction, defying the new international norm and the will of their citizens. Each year, these countries spend billions of dollars upgrading and expanding their arsenals.

To prevent the unparalleled harm that nuclear weapons are designed to inflict, governments must act with urgency to eliminate them. But that will only happen if people everywhere rise up and demand action.

A hundred and one countries, the majority of the world’s nations, are firmly committed to this goal, having joined the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons

On 26 September, the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons, we recognize a simple but important truth: everyone deserves a future free from nuclear harm

History has shown that nuclear weapons have the potential to destroy all civilization and the planet’s ecosystems. Their consequences extend across generations.

In the Marshall Islands, UN Human Rights has documented how radiological and other impacts persist, affecting a broad range of human rights — including life, health, food, water, culture and a clean, healthy environment.

Peace is not simply the absence of war. It depends on the ability of societies to confront disagreement without violence, protect human rights and dignity, and keep dialogue open when tensions rise.

Today, conflict, displacement, discrimination, hate speech, backsliding on rights and polarization are fracturing communities and eroding trust.

On this , UNESCO calls for greater investment in the institutions, skills and relationships that allow societies to address tensions before they turn into violence.

For more than 80 years, UNESCO has worked to build peace through education, culture, freedom of expression and dialogue.

Peace is never secured once and for all. It is built through institutions, relationships and daily choices.
