A 'new day'.
A new year.
The arrival of spring and rebirth of nature.
For more than 300 million people around the world, it is a time for family and friends to come together, reflect on the past and look forward to a brighter future.
Novruz is also a celebration of humanity’s rich cultural heritage and diversity. And a chance – for all of us – to be guided by its values of peace, dialogue and solidarity:
• To reaffirm our commitment to human rights and dignity;
• To promote mutual respect and reconciliation;
• To protect the planet and live in harmony with nature.
As we celebrate Novruz, let us choose hope and compassion, embrace the opportunities that lie ahead, and work together to building a more peaceful, more sustainable and more inclusive world for all.
May this Novruz bring you joy, good health and prosperity."
