Commemoration of the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers
On the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers,officially celebrated on 29 May of each year, we promote the tangible impact of peacekeeping and pay tribute to the dedication, professionalism, and courage of personnel who serve in missions around the world.
It is also a moment to reflect on the sacrifice made by peacekeepers who have lost their lives serving the cause of peace under the UN flag over the past 76 years.
This year’s theme, “The Future of Peacekeeping”, reflects the evolving nature of peace operations in a complex and rapidly changing world. The UN is actively working to modernize and adapt missions for the challenges of the future.
