A New Agenda for Peace

A New Agenda for Peace outlines Secretary-General António Guterres' vision for multilateral efforts for peace and security, based on international law, for a world in transition. It reflects on today’s peace and security threats – including the changing conflict landscape; persistent violence outside of conflict environments; the potential weaponization of new technologies; rising inequalities; shrinking civic space; and the climate emergency – and emphasizes how violations of the UN Charter and a pushback against human rights, in particular women’s rights, represent a significant normative challenge.
