背景簡(jiǎn)報(bào)

On 13 September 1999， the United Nations General Assembly adopted， by consensus and without reservation， its landmark， pioneering and norm-setting resolution 53/243 on the Declaration and Programme of Action on a Culture of Peace. Among other things， it provided the driving force for the implementation of the UN-declared International Decade for Culture of Peace and Non-Violence for the Children of the World （2001-2010）. Asserting and re-affirming the commitment of the totality of the Member States for building the culture of peace， the UNGA has adopted every year since 1997 resolutions on the subject.

The General Assembly， through its annual substantive resolutions， has highlighted the priority it attaches to the full and effective implementation of these visionary decisions which are universally applicable and is sought after by the vast majority of all peoples in every nation.

Recognizing the need for continual support to the further strengthening of the global movement to promote the Culture of Peace， as envisaged by the United Nations， particularly in the current global context， the day-long， General Assembly High Level Forum is intended to coincide with the anniversary date of the adoption of 53/243. Substantively， the Forum is to be an open public opportunity for the UN member states， UN system entities， civil society including NGOs， media， private sector， and all others interested， to have an exchange of ideas and suggestions on the ways to build and promote the Culture of Peace and to highlight emerging trends that impact on the implementation process.

The Forum is convened by the UNGA President and he/she takes the lead in the preparations of the event which focuses on the implementation of the Programme of Action. It organized through broad partnership and inclusive collaboration among Member States， international organizations and civil society.

Following the wide-ranging success of the UN General Assembly’s High Level Forum on The Culture of Peace held on 14 September 2012， the Assembly， under the guidance of its President John Ashe and co-sponsored by 105 member-states led by Bangladesh， adopted by consensus the resolution 68/125 on “Follow-up to the Declaration and Programme of Action on a Culture of Peace”.

In its operative para13， it said “Requests the President of the General Assembly to consider convening a high-level forum， as appropriate and within existing resources， devoted to the implementation of the Programme of Action on the occasion of the anniversary of its adoption， on or around 13 September.”

In the preambular part， the resolution also expressed its positive view of the Forum by “welcoming the successful holding on 6 September 2013 of the General Assembly High-level Forum on the Culture of Peace， convened by the President of the Assembly， and the high-level participation， wide-ranging partnership and inclusive collaboration among Member States， international organizations and civil society， as evidenced at the Forum，”

Earlier in 2012 a resolution （A/Res/67/106） which， inter alia， also requested the President to consider convening the High Level Forum， was adopted by the Assembly at its 67th session with the cosponsorship of 84 member-states also under Bangladesh’s leadership.

1999年9月13日，聯(lián)合國(guó)大會(huì)一致通過了具有開創(chuàng)性及標(biāo)準(zhǔn)制定性的53/243決議：和平文化行動(dòng)宣言。《宣言》為世界兒童建設(shè)和平文化與非暴力文化國(guó)際十年（2001-2010）項(xiàng)目的執(zhí)行提供推動(dòng)力。申明并再次確認(rèn)了全體成員國(guó)對(duì)構(gòu)建和平文化的承諾，聯(lián)合國(guó)大會(huì)自通過1997年的決議以來，每年都會(huì)通過此方面的決議。

對(duì)于這些具有遠(yuǎn)見的決定，聯(lián)合國(guó)大會(huì)每年都會(huì)通過實(shí)質(zhì)性決議來加強(qiáng)人們對(duì)其全面而有效實(shí)施的關(guān)注。這些決定不僅在世界范圍內(nèi)可行，而且是每個(gè)國(guó)家大多數(shù)人民所追求的。

認(rèn)識(shí)到對(duì)繼續(xù)在全球范圍內(nèi)加強(qiáng)和平文化運(yùn)動(dòng)的需求后，聯(lián)合國(guó)大會(huì)高級(jí)別論壇有意地將這維持一天的會(huì)議安排在53/243決議通過的周年紀(jì)念日。在實(shí)質(zhì)上，該論壇為聯(lián)合國(guó)成員國(guó)、聯(lián)合國(guó)機(jī)構(gòu)、以及包括非政府組織、媒體、私營(yíng)組織等其他利益相關(guān)團(tuán)體在內(nèi)的社團(tuán)組織提供了一個(gè)就如何構(gòu)建、推進(jìn)和平文化及如何展示能影響項(xiàng)目執(zhí)行過程的新趨勢(shì)方面進(jìn)行意見交換的機(jī)會(huì)。

該論壇由聯(lián)合國(guó)大會(huì)主席召集，他/她領(lǐng)導(dǎo)會(huì)議的籌備工作，而籌備工作的中心在于行動(dòng)綱領(lǐng)的執(zhí)行。論壇通過會(huì)員國(guó)、國(guó)際和社團(tuán)組織間的廣泛合作伙伴關(guān)系和包容性的合作進(jìn)行組織。

2012年9月14日，在聯(lián)大主席約翰·W·阿什的指導(dǎo)下，由105個(gè)成員國(guó)共同主辦并由孟加拉引導(dǎo)召開的聯(lián)合國(guó)大會(huì)和平文化高級(jí)別論壇獲得了廣泛成功，并一致通過了68/125號(hào)有關(guān)“和平文化宣言及行動(dòng)綱領(lǐng)后續(xù)”的決議。

在運(yùn)行章節(jié)的第13段，決議稱：“請(qǐng)求聯(lián)大主席考慮運(yùn)用現(xiàn)存的資源在決議通過的紀(jì)念日9月13日左右舉辦一次高級(jí)別論壇，以致力于推動(dòng)行動(dòng)計(jì)劃的執(zhí)行?！?/p>

在序言部分，該決議還陳述了對(duì)論壇的正面觀點(diǎn)：“2013年9月6日由聯(lián)大主席主持召開的和平文化高級(jí)別論壇獲得了重要成功，論壇參與的級(jí)別之高、伙伴關(guān)系的廣泛性以及成員國(guó)、國(guó)際和社團(tuán)組織之間合作的包容性在論壇上得以明顯體現(xiàn)?！?/p>

2012年初在由孟加拉領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下、由84個(gè)成員國(guó)共同主辦的聯(lián)大第67次會(huì)議上，通過了一份決議（A/Res/67/106），也特別請(qǐng)求聯(lián)大主席舉辦高級(jí)別論壇。
