每年的5月29日，全世界會慶祝「聯合國維和人員國際日」。
Every year on May 29, the world observes the International Day of UN Peacekeepers.
這一天是為了向在聯合國旗幟下服役的軍事、警察及文職人員的勇氣與奉獻致敬。
This day pays tribute to the courage and dedication of the military, police, and civilian personnel who serve under the United Nations flag.
該紀念日成立於2002年，旨在紀念1948年首個聯合國維和特派團——「聯合國停戰監督組」成立的週年紀念日。
Established in 2002, this day commemorates the anniversary of the first UN peacekeeping mission, the United Nations Truce Supervision Organization, which began in 1948.
這些被俗稱為「藍盔」的人員並非常備軍，而是由會員國派遣支援，以協助各國從衝突過渡到永續和平。
Often called 'Blue Helmets,' these individuals are not a standing army but are contributed by member states to help countries transition from conflict to sustainable peace.
幾十年來，維和人員的角色已發生重大演變。
Over the decades, the role of peacekeepers has evolved significantly.
儘管面臨恐怖主義、氣候變遷和虛假資訊等現代挑戰，維和行動仍是管理全球衝突最有效的工具之一。
Despite facing modern challenges like terrorism, climate change, and misinformation, peacekeeping remains one of the most effective tools for managing global conflict.
有超過4500名人員在服役期間悲壯犧牲。
More than 4,500 personnel have tragically lost their lives in service.
透過緬懷他們的奉獻，我們認識到建構更穩定世界所需的重要工作。
By honoring their sacrifice, we recognize the essential work required to build a more stable world.
從聯合國總部的敬獻花圈儀式到全球各地的社區外展活動，我們共同慶祝那些致力於和平事業者的永恆遺產。
From wreath-laying ceremonies at UN Headquarters to community outreach events globally, we celebrate the ongoing legacy of those committed to the cause of peace.
