Peace grows where relationships are tended. 🕊️🌍

The Earth Charter invites us to "recognize that peace is the wholeness created by right relationships with oneself, other persons, other cultures, other life, Earth, and the larger whole of which all are a part." (Principle 16f)

On this International Day of Peace, we join the call to Invest in Peace, for everyone, everywhere, every day. Every act of care, every dialogue across difference, every gesture of respect for the community of life weaves that wholeness.

What relationship will you nurture today?

Next week, the UNGA81 high level segment will start. It is an opportunity for countries to share their key interest and focus and for the international community to come together to renew international collaboration.

Today’s SDG Moment is a timely reminder that progress remains possible when we act collectively and accelerate implementation with resolve.

As the world enters the decisive final years of the 2030 Agenda, UNGA81 must help turn commitments into action by advancing the SDGs, accelerating climate action, and strengthening education for sustainability to build a more peaceful and resilient future.

Key dates include:
🌍 22-26 and 28 September: General Debate
🌱 23 September: High-Level Meeting on Climate Action and the Just Transition
🌊 24 September: High-Level Meeting on Sea-Level Rise
🕊️ 29 September: High-Level Plenary Meeting for the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons

This is a moment to restore trust, reinforce multilateralism and work together for people and planet.

What would change if law recognized rivers, mountains, and ecosystems as members of the Earth community with rights of their own?

In the new episode of the Earth Charter Podcast, Mirian Vilela, Executive Director of Earth Charter International, speaks with South African environmental lawyer Cormac Cullinan, founder of the Wild Law Institute and a leading voice in the Rights of Nature movement.

Together they explore the International Rights of Nature Tribunal, a proposed Declaration for the Rights of Antarctica, and the shared ethical roots of Earth jurisprudence and the Earth Charter.

"Law is like the DNA of society."

Why the United Nations Still Matters in a Fragmented World
By Xuan Ni, Intern, Earth Charter International

The 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly opened this week, under the theme "Restoring Trust, Managing Transformation." As leaders gather once again, a familiar question resurfaces: can multilateralism still deliver in a world of shifting alliances?

No single institution can resolve climate change, pandemics, or conflict on its own, and the United Nations is no exception. Yet the more meaningful question may not be whether the UN is imperfect. It is whether the world can afford to abandon the space where 193 states still gather to negotiate, coordinate, and hold one another accountable.

Por qué las Naciones Unidas siguen importando en un mundo fragmentado
Por Xuan Ni, pasante, Carta de la Tierra Internacional

El 81.º período de sesiones de la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas se inauguró esta semana bajo el tema «Restaurar la confianza, gestionar la transformación». Mientras las y los líderes vuelven a reunirse, resurge una pregunta conocida: ¿puede el multilateralismo seguir dando resultados en un mundo de alianzas cambiantes?

El cambio climático, las pandemias y los conflictos exceden la capacidad de cualquier institución por sí sola, y las Naciones Unidas no son la excepción. Sin embargo, la pregunta de fondo quizá no sea si las Naciones Unidas son imperfectas. Es si el mundo puede permitirse abandonar el espacio donde 193 Estados todavía se reúnen para negociar, coordinar y pedirse cuentas mutuamente.

La Joya School is a wonderful example of a school that, over the years, has continued to explore new ways of doing education and putting Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) into practice in meaningful ways.

Founded in 1948, this small public school in rural Costa Rica has embraced outdoor and experiential education as an integral part of learning. Its vegetable garden, ecological classroom, and creative use of the garden for mathematics and literacy are woven into the curriculum and everyday school life.

The surrounding community is also actively involved, while students develop life skills through collaboration and care for the Earth. 🌎

We commend everyone involved in this inspiring journey, especially its director, Banachek Garcia, for his vision, leadership, and dedication.

✨ La Joya School is the first school in the world to complete the Earth Charter & ESD School Seal process twice: first in 2022 and again in 2026, going even deeper into reflection, learning, and the continuous improvement of its practices.

🌎 Um encontro especial sobre educação, sustentabilidade, paz e cidadania global!

Na quarta-feira, 9 de setembro, teremos este encontro especial com o objetivo de apresentar três importantes agendas educacionais da UNESCO, destacando suas complementaridades, conexões e sinergias.

Vamos explorar como essas agendas podem contribuir para fortalecer a transformação dos sistemas educacionais e das práticas educativas, promovendo uma educação comprometida com a sustentabilidade, a paz, os direitos humanos e a cidadania global.

As três agendas que estarão em destaque são:
🌱 A Recomendação da UNESCO sobre Educação para a Paz, os Direitos Humanos e o Desenvolvimento Sustentável
🌿 A Parceria para uma Educação Verde (Greening Education Partnership)
🌎 A Educação para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável – EDS 2030
Será uma oportunidade para conhecer melhor essas iniciativas e, sobretudo, refletir sobre como suas diferentes perspectivas podem se complementar e fortalecer umas às outras na construção de uma educação transformadora.

Participe e venha fazer parte dessa conversa! 🌍✨ https://cartadelatierra.org/events/pontes-para-a-sustentabilidade-integrando-educacao-para-a-paz-educacao-verde-e-eds-2030/
