#DecolonizeTheUN ๐ Today is the International Day of Multilateralism and Diplomacy for Peace โ but what does peace really mean in a world built on colonial legacies and double standards?
โ๐พ At Manushya, we say: Multilateralism must serve the Peoples โ not the 1%. Too often, global diplomacy protects the elite, while the Global South is bombed, starved, silenced, and erased.
