Happy New Year 2024

From The Hague, the city of peace and justice, the Editorial Team of commonspace.eu extend their sincere best wishes for a Happy New Year 2024 to all our contributors, supporters, readers and subscribers.

2023 ends with war raging in many parts of the world - from Ukraine to Yemen, from Gaza to Sudan, and beyond. We hope 2024 will bring just peace to all across the world, but we also understand that this can only happen if we all work towards this objective. For 2024 also has the risk of widening further the cycle of violence, engulfing even more countries and people.

We hope for a good start for the year, and that this will continue throughout 2024. Happy New Year!
