United Nations’ Day
from African Dialogue · host Channel Africa
Today marks the United Nations’ Day which is the anniversary of the entry into force in 1945 of the UN Charter. With the ratification of this founding document by the majority of its signatories, including the five permanent members of the Security Council, the United Nations officially came into being. This day has been celebrated as United Nations Day since 1948. In 1971, the United Nations General Assembly recommended that the day be observed by Member States as a public holiday. To help us look into this, we are now joined on the line by: • Kenneth Diole: The Youth Programme at the South African Institute for International Affairs (SAIIA) • Sanusha Naidu: Senior Research Associate Institute for Global Dialogue
