As the UN turns 80, today’s youth are not only inheriting a turbulent world — they’re reshaping it. At "Bridging Generations: Youth and Legacy in Multilateralism" last week, we joined global voices reflecting on the importance of young people in the renewal of multilateralism 🌍

80 years on, the UN navigates the rough waters to serve humanity and protect our planet. Not perfect — but indispensable. The Charter is still our guide, the SDGs our toolbox, and peace, dignity, and justice for all our shared purpose. #UN80

On the International Day of Peace, Mary Robinson joined inspiring youth leaders to launch the Hear Us. Act Now for a Peaceful World campaign. With the number of armed conflict at its highest since 1945, the message was clear: young voices must be at the heart of peacebuilding.

It is a huge honour to serve as UK Foreign Secretary. From Russian aggression in Europe to the horrendous famine and conflict in Gaza - when UK diplomacy has never been more important. I look forward to representing and promoting British interests around the world. @FCDOGovUK
