Live performance by various artists from around the world to celebrate International Jazz Day, on its 10th anniversary. With a worldwide webcast on Facebook, YouTube, jazzday.com, unesco.org, UN Web TV and U.S. State Department outlets, the 2022 All-Star Global Concert made a powerful statement in support of peace, healing and unity through a diverse series of performances by leading jazz artists from around the globe. Hosted by Herbie Hancock and the Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz.

International Jazz Day was declared by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization in 2011 "to highlight jazz and its diplomatic role of uniting people in all corners of the globe." It is celebrated annually on April 30. The idea came from jazz pianist and UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador Herbie Hancock. Jazz Day is chaired by Hancock and the UNESCO Director-General. The celebration is recognized on the calendars of both UNESCO and the United Nations.
