„Dialog und gegenseitiges Verständnis zwischen den Religionen“

Friedensgebete und Beiträge von Jugendlichen aus den verschiedenen religiösen Traditionen

In 1999 the UN General Assembly endorsed the recommendation that 12 August be declared International Youth Day. The Assembly recommended that public information activities be organized to support the Day as a way to promote better awareness of the World Programme of Action for Youth.

The Implementation of this Programme of Action requires the full enjoyment by young people of all human rights and fundamental freedoms, and also requires that Governments take effective action against violations of these rights and freedoms and promote non-discrimination, tolerance, respect for diversity, with full respect for various religious and ethical values, cultural backgrounds and philosophical convictions of their young people, equality of opportunity, solidarity, security and participation of all young women and men.

In line with the theme for the International Year of Youth 2010-2011, the theme for this year’s International Youth Day is “Dialogue and Mutual Understanding”. The choice of theme reflects the General Assembly’s appreciation of the value of dialogue among youth from different cultures as well as among different generations. (Message of the Secretary General on IYD2010)
