The concert "Song for the Days of Christmas" dedicated to the Land and Peace, especially for the peoples of Ukraine, Palestine and Israel, was held at the United States of the World and the Peace Museum.
In his address, Secretary-General Michele Capasso emphasised the difficult time in human history and the importance of moments of togetherness based on solidarity and the sharing of important values for the respect of human dignity.
"I dedicate this evening to Samira, the poor Iranian woman hanged for no reason in a horror that goes against every human right," Capasso concluded.
The concert curated by "Promenade a Sud" is included in the "Other Christmases" programme of the City of Naples 2023 and is intended as a journey through the rhythms and melodies of ancient and timeless, magical atmospheres of the Christmas season.
The "Promenade a Sud" project aims to enhance and preserve the musical and cultural heritage of southern Italy.
The venue of the United States of the World and the Museum of Peace was chosen for a specific reason: 181 countries from all over the world were represented and an approved "Constitution" founded on saving the Earth and building Peace. Through the song "Stella D' Argento" by C. Faiello, performed by Marianita Carfora, a tribute was paid to the peoples of the Holy Land always in perpetual conflict.
A theatrical reading by a former Naples prison inmate, Mattia Esposito, took place at the Museum of Peace - as part of the "Other Christmases" event - where he gave an evocative speech about how Christmas is experienced by the less fortunate.
A concert for the "Totem for Peace" was held at the headquarters of the United States of the World and the Museum of Peace.
The Secretary-General Michele Capasso, the Council of Ambassadors, the Board of Governors with Pia Molinari and Jacopo Molinari, the International Committee, the delegates of the autonomous sections "Fondazione Mediterraneo", "Accademia del Mediterraneo" and "Almamed" and the heads of the branch offices express their deep condolences for the passing of Abdulaziz-Al-Babtain, a founding member of the United States of the World.
