Main event
International Day of Non-violence
"There is a lot that I am willing to die for, but there is nothing I am willing to kill for".
Mahatma Gandhi
The International Day of Non-Violence, established by the UN General Assembly resolution of June 15, 2007, is celebrated annually on October 2 in many countries of the world.
The date was not chosen by chance: Mahatma Gandhi, leader of the independence movement in India and founder of the philosophy of non-violence, was born on October 2, 1869.
In accordance with the UN resolution, the International Day serves as an additional reason to “promote non-violence, including through educational and public awareness”. The document confirms the "universal significance of the principle of non-violence", as well as the desire to "establish a culture of peace, tolerance, understanding and non-violence."
The State Minister for International Affairs of India, Anand Sharma, introducing this resolution on behalf of 140 authors to the General Assembly, stated that “a wide and diverse range of document creators reflects a feeling of deep respect for Mahatma Gandhi, as well as the continued importance of his philosophical views.” In his speech, he cited the following statement by the deceased leader: “Non-violence is the greatest power in the hands of mankind. It is more powerful than the most powerful destructive weapons generated by human ingenuity. ”
The “No to Violence” sculpture by K.F. Reutersuord is installed on a pedestal in front of the visitors' entrance to the UN Headquarters complex.
The principle of non-violence, also known as non-violent resistance, denies using physical violence to achieve social or political change.
It is believed that there are three main categories of non-violent action:
- protest and persuasion (this includes, in particular, holding marches and pickets);
- non-cooperation;
- non-violent intervention (for example, blocking movement or seizing premises without harming people).
Often characterized as the “politics of ordinary people”, this form of social struggle was adopted by the broad masses of the population all over the world in the struggle for social justice. In the modern world, where violence and social injustice, unfortunately, is still very much, and, besides, the number of armed conflicts and clashes in different countries is large, Non-Violence Day is a very relevant and important date.
