UNITED NATIONS: Nelson Mandela has been referred to as a "moral compass" by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who has urged us to uphold his legacy by acting.

In his statement on Monday to commemorate Nelson Mandela International Day, which was commemorated Monday, Guterres said, "Nelson Mandela was a healer of communities and a guide to generations."

Mandela demonstrated that "each and every one of us has the potential and responsibility to build a brighter future for all," the UN chief said, adding that "he remains a moral compass and reference to us all." "War, emergency situations, racism, prejudice, poverty, and inequities all plague today's world, which is also in danger of a climatic catastrophe. Let us draw inspiration from Nelson Mandela's example and find hope in his mission. "The best way to honour Mandela's legacy is to act." Guterres said.

The Nelson Mandela International Day was commemorated on Monday at the UN headquarters in New York under the subject of taking action and igniting change.

UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed said that Mandela has inspired her ever since she was a young woman trying to find her calling. Realizing the Sustainable Development Goals, she added, "to stand united against hate, and to strive for peace, prosperity, and human rights for all, on Mandela Day and every day, is the best homage to Mandela.
