This is the research I have gathered so far about Resolution 377. If you have additional info that can help please DM me or write to me here via my contact page

EMERGENCY MESSAGE AND CALL TO ACTION FOR CEASEFIRE NOW!


Please write to the UN to invoke Resolution 377 RIGHT NOW

Yes, please share the video on my Instagram and make it go viral. Do not lose hope. People in Gaza, Palestine are still hopeful and fighting for their lives. This is a matter of life or death.

 People I know and love in Palestine are counting on all of us. Thank you in advance for your support.

What is resolution 377?

United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) resolution 377 A,[1] the "Uniting for Peace" resolution, states that in any cases where the Security Council, because of a lack of unanimity among its five permanent members (P5), fails to act as required to maintain international security and peace, the General Assembly shall consider the matter immediately and may issue appropriate recommendations to UN members for collective measures, including the use of armed force when necessary, in order to maintain or restore international security and peace. It was adopted 3 November 1950, after fourteen days of Assembly discussions, by a vote of 52 to 5, with 2 abstentions.[2] The resolution was designed to provide the UN with an alternative avenue for action when at least one P5 member uses its veto to obstruct the Security Council from carrying out its functions mandated by the UN Charter.

To facilitate prompt action by the General Assembly in the case of a deadlocked Security Council, the resolution created the mechanism of the emergency special session (ESS).[3] Emergency special sessions have been convened under this procedure on eleven occasions, with the most recent convened in February 2022, to address Russia's invasion of Ukraine. 


Call and write to the following people and a suggested script

(Also side note before calling/writing: I know we are all mad but be kind and factual in your messaging to get what we want. Strategy over emotions when it comes to dealing with government officials always. Process your sacred anger elsewhere please.)

This is what I wrote/said “I urge the United Nations to invoke Resolution 377 ('Uniting for Peace') and the effort to be made in circumventing the United States veto in order to implement an IMMEDIATE CEASEFIRE in Gaza and all of Palestine. There have been over 20,000 deaths with half of those being children.”

  • UN Secretary-General is António Guterres: Addressing the UN Secretary-General can also be a way to bring attention to your concern, although the Secretary-General does not have the authority to invoke Resolution 377, they can influence discussions and agendas.   general inquiries email is: inquiries2@un.org
  • Members of the UN Security Council: Writing to the current members of the UN Security Council, especially the non-permanent members who may be more receptive to public opinion, could also be impactful.
