May this Nowruz bring you joy, good health and prosperity.For more than 300 million people around the world, it is a time for family and friends to come together, reflect on the past and look forward to a brighter future. Nowruz is also a celebration of humanity’s rich cultural heritage and diversity. And a chance — for all of us — to be guided by its values of peace, dialogue and solidarity: to reaffirm our commitment to human rights and dignity; to promote mutual respect and reconciliation; to protect the planet and live in harmony with nature. Following is the text of UN Secretary-General António Guterres’ video message for the International Day of Nowruz, observed 21 March: As we celebrate Nowruz, let us choose hope and compassion, embrace the opportunities that lie ahead, and work together to building a more peaceful, more sustainable and more inclusive world for all. Nowruz marks new beginnings. A “new day”. A new year. The arrival of spring and rebirth of nature.
