Dag Hammarskjöld Medal, UN Woman Police Officer of the Year and UN Military Gender Advocate of the Year ceremonies - International Day of UN Peacekeepers 2025.
The United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres to preside over Dag Hammarskjold medal, UN Woman Police Officer and UN Military Gender Advocates of the Year ceremony.
To mark the International Day of UN Peacekeepers at UN Headquarters, the UN Secretary-General will preside over an in-person ceremony at which the Dag Hammarskjold Medal will be awarded posthumously to fallen peacekeepers. He will also present the UN Military Gender Advocate of the Year award and the UN Woman Police Officer of the Year awards.
For 77 years, United Nations peacekeepers have worked to protect people, preserve peace, and provide hope in the world's most fragile political and security situations. Since 1948, more than two million uniformed and civilian personnel have helped countries to transition from war to peace. Today, more than 68,000 peacekeepers serve in 11 missions deployed in hotspots around the world.
Observed under the theme "The Future of Peacekeeping" this year's International Day looks at the invaluable contributions military, police and civilian peacekeepers have made over the last seven decades and our commitment to adapt peacekeeping to our changing world.
