The gold-hued plaque with the phrase ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ written in Hindi and ‘The World is One Family’ in English embellishes a wall inside the entrance of the grounds of India’s Permanent Mission.

The unveiling ceremony of the plaque took place a day after the Permanent Mission of India, along with the ICCR, organized an international conference on ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ at the United Nations headquarters.

To effectively create unity and collaboration in addressing global concerns, India’s G20 Presidency for 2023 adopted the theme “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” or “One Earth – One Family – One Future.”
