आज से सात साल पहले नरेंद्र मोदी ने जहां से भारतीय समाज और संस्‍कृति की बहुलता को चुनौती दी थी, दुनिया ने वहीं से बहुलता की रक्षा के लिए एक शख्‍स को सम्‍मानित किया है। #काशी के डॉ. लेनिन को आज दुनिया भर में बहुलता के संरक्षण के लिए प्रयासरत दस शख्सियतों की अंतिम सूची में शामिल किया गया। ग्लोबल सेंटर फॉर प्लुरलिज़्म यह पुरस्कार हर दो साल में एक बार दुनिया भर के व्यक्तियों, संगठनों और सरकारों को ऐसे अधिक समावेशी समाजों के निर्माण में अनुकरणीय उपलब्धियों के लिए देता है जहां विविधता की रक्षा की जाती है।

इस मौके पर कनाडा के पूर्व प्रधानमंत्री जो क्‍लार्क ने कहा, “बहुलवाद सम्मान, सहयोग और साझा उद्देश्य का एक ऐसा विवरण है जो समुदायों को गतिशील रखता है। इन शख्सियतों ने बहुलवाद में उल्लेखनीय योगदान दिया है। वे आज की दुनिया में अन्याय, असमानता और अपवर्जन की चुनौतियों से निपटने में मौलिकता और साहस को दर्शाते हैं।”

ग्लोबल सेंटर फॉर प्लुरलिज़्म को 2021 ग्लोबल प्लुरलिज़्म अवार्ड के लिए 70 देशों से 500 नामांकन प्राप्त हुए थे। नामांकित व्यक्ति कठोर समीक्षा प्रक्रिया से गुजरते हैं और बहुलवाद से संबंधित अनुशासनों की स्वतंत्र विशेषज्ञों की अंतरराष्ट्रीय जूरी द्वारा चुने जाते हैं।

CALL FOR INCLUSIVE GLOBAL GOVERNANCE

 https://www.wethepeoples.org/supporters/

https://www.wethepeoples.org/

We the Peoples - for inclusive global governance

The biggest challenges facing humanity such as pandemics, the climate crisis, biodiversity loss, violent conflict, forced displacement, discrimination and inequality are global and cross-cutting in nature. With each passing day, they become more pressing. International collaboration and global governance need to improve significantly and become more accountable to those affected most: the world’s citizens.

On the occasion of the UN’s 75th anniversary, heads of state and government committed to making global governance more inclusive. The UN Secretary-General promised to promote a new model based on full, inclusive and equal participation in global institutions. We agree. It is time to give people a stronger voice in global affairs and at the UN.

We call on the UN and member states to implement three specific institutional changes to strengthen the inclusive and democratic character of the UN:

A World Citizens' Initiative

The creation of the instrument of a World Citizens’ Initiative which enables people to put forward proposals on key issues of global concern for discussion and further action at the highest political level. Any proposal that reaches a certain threshold of popular support should be put onto the agenda of the UN General Assembly or Security Council.

#UNParliamentaryAssembly

More details: unpacampaign.org

A UN Parliamentary Assembly

The creation of a UN Parliamentary Assembly which allows for the inclusion of elected representatives in the agenda-setting and decision-making of the UN. The assembly will act as a representative body and watchdog connecting the people with the UN and reflecting a broad diversity of global viewpoints.

A UN Civil Society Envoy

Setting up the office of a UN Civil Society Envoy to enable greater participation, spur inclusive convenings and drive the UN’s outreach to the public and civil society organisations. This envoy should champion the implementation of a broader strategy for opening up the UN to people’s participation and civil society voices.

#UNCivilSocietyEnvoy

These new tools will help the UN and member states to tackle global challenges more effectively. They will enhance the legitimacy of global governance and facilitate its transformational potential.

Tangible changes in the UN’s functioning are urgently needed to realize the promise of the Preamble of the UN Charter which begins with the words, “We the Peoples of the United Nations”.
