IIMSAM Middle East Director & Goodwill Ambassador Dr. Naseer Homoud message on United Nations Day. Dr. Naseer Homoud calls upon the Member States to empower the UN enabling it to achieve the Millennium Development Goals by half 2015.
Doha, Qatar, October 25, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Observing the United Nations Day which is marked every year on October 24, Dr. Naseer Homoud Goodwill Ambassador and Director of Middle East office for the Intergovernmental Institution for the use of Micro-algae Spirulina against Malnutrition (IIMSAM), the Permanent Observer to the United Nations Economic and Social Council while addressing the media said “The UN has a unique mandate to maintain international peace and security and to determine what should be done when peace is threatened - from mediation and sanctions to military intervention and right now we are at a stage where the number of peacekeeping operations throughout the world is increasing dramatically”.
“The Day provides a chance to promote awareness among people of the world regarding aims and achievements of the United Nations”, said Dr. Homoud. He further stressed that the United Nations has worked hard since its establishment, alleviating suffering in every part of the world and strengthening the mechanisms of international cooperation. “It has taken several remarkable steps forward in the common struggle of all nations for development, security, and human rights,” added Dr. Homoud. He further urged “Since its inception the United Nations has consistently demonstrated its central role in the maintenance of international peace and security and in advancing the development agenda”.
Dr. Homoud said “We live in an interconnected and interdependent world where security, human freedom and economic development are also interlinked. Growing interdependence has called for shared responsibilities, common commitments, collective strategies and concerted efforts. IIMSAM feels that only a strong, credible, effective, efficient United Nations is capable of managing intertwined challenges and threats; and promoting social and economic progress with full respect to justice, freedom and equality. IIMSAM’s long-standing participation in the UN Millennium Development Goals stands as a clear manifestation of our commitment to the core principles of the United Nations”.
He called upon all members of UN and its all agencies to come out with revised plans and mechanism to deal with all emergent crises like human rights violation, poverty, hunger, malnutrition, global warming, epidemic, and food shortage among others. The activities of the United Nations in maintaining and building world peace and security, the process of global disarmament, stimulating a balanced economic and social progress, and developing human rights protection, to fight world hunger, poverty and malnutrition, to mention some of the more important, are still a proof of the UN’s dedication to the dialogue from which no one should be excluded. “Although global challenges have changed significantly since the founding of the UN, its basic goal remains the same – to build trust among the nations of the world. Let us join today, and not only today, all of those who selflessly promote the ideas of the UN community,” he urged.
On this important day IIMSAM calls on world leaders to fulfill their MDG commitments through clear, practical, targeted, and measurable initiatives, matched by clear points of accountability and transparency for ensuring successes and challenges can be understood by all. IIMSAM believes that promise in the Millennium Development Goal to reduce hunger and poverty by half of the year 2015 can only be redeemed by serious thinking, planning and action. Dr. Naseer further added “When we look the other side, there are impending challenges for the mankind, the nature of crisis asks for global and concerted efforts on the part of world bodies, governments and civil society groups to tackle it. IIMSAM under visionary guidance of its DG, H.E Ambassador R. Maradona is committed, among others, towards UN MDGs Number 1 to reduce extreme poverty and hunger”, concluded Dr. Homoud.
