DESCRIPTION:

The International Day for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation Awareness aims to raise public awareness and understanding of disarmament issues, particularly among young people. Multilateral disarmament and arms limitation have long been central to the United Nations' efforts to maintain global peace and security.
Concerns over weapons of mass destruction, especially nuclear weapons, remain significant due to their destructive power and threat to humanity. Excessive accumulation of conventional weapons, illicit trade in small arms, and the use of explosive weapons in populated areas pose challenges to international peace, security, and sustainable development. Emerging technologies like autonomous weapons have also garnered attention and raise global security concerns.
Observed on March 5, the International Day for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation Awareness contributes to enhancing understanding of how disarmament efforts contribute to peace, security, conflict prevention, and alleviating human suffering caused by weapons. The General Assembly, through resolution A/RES/77/51, invites Member States, UN organizations, civil society, academia, media, and individuals to commemorate the day through educational and public awareness activities.
