RECENT ACTS OF ETHNIC-BASED VIOLENCE HIGHLIGHT NEED FOR GREATER
DIALOGUE -- UN OFFICIAL
New York, Jul 20 2013 3:00PM
Deeply concerned about the increasing number of acts of violence
worldwide based on ethnicity and religion, a senior United Nations
official has called for addressing the root causes of such violence
and promoting dialogue and tolerance.

"Such acts develop into incitement to hatred, racism, and xenophobia
that often lead to national, regional and international instability,"
said a <"http://www.unaoc.org/2013/07/on-the-recent-incidents-of-ethnic-based-violence-and-incitement-to-hatred-across-the-globe-and-promoting-cultural-diversity-and-inclusiveness/">statement
issued on behalf of Nassir Abdulaziz Al-Nasser, the High
Representative for the Alliance of Civilizations.

"These acts are contrary to the values the Alliance of Civilizations
is striving to promote such as cultural diversity, inclusiveness,
religious tolerance and meaningful dialogue in accordance with the UN
Charter."

Mr. Al-Nasser urged concerned religious and political leaders to
address the root causes of ethnic and religious violence and uphold
the rule of law, as well as engage in preventive diplomacy efforts
with the aim of ensuring peace and security, protecting human rights
and strengthening efforts leading to sustainable development.

"The High Representative reiterates the importance of building bridges
between ethnic groups to create an environment conducive to
reconciliation, peace and prosperity for all," the statement added.

Launched in 2005 through the initiative of Spain and Turkey, and under
the auspices of the UN, the Alliance seeks to promote better
cross-cultural relations worldwide.
