Prince Harry will be in New York on Monday to deliver a keynote address at a UN General Assembly meeting for Nelson Mandela Day.
The event begins at 10am EST, with the Duke turning in his remarks round 10:30am.
Harry's supporters see his presence at the tournament as a signal of his upward shove on the world stage in contrast to claims in the British tabloids that he would lose importance after stepping down from his royal duties.
According to a statement, the General Assembly will hold an casual assembly to mark the observance of "Nelson Mandela International Day", for the duration of which the 2020 UN Nelson Mandela Prize will be awarded to Mrs. Marianna V. Vardinoyannis of Greece and Dr. Morissanda Kouyaté of Guinea. The Deputy Secretary-General and the President of the General Assembly will supply remarks at this event. Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, is scheduled to deliver the keynote address.
The declaration on UN's website said, "On 18 July each and every year, we invite you to mark Nelson Mandela International Day with the aid of making a difference in your communities. Everyone has the capability and the accountability to change the world for the better! Mandela Day is an occasion for all to take action and inspire change."
