The Duke of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍, who recently celebrated his 40th birthday, delivered a heartfelt address to a packed audience at the Halo Trust&#8217;s anti-landmine event in New York. The charity rose to international prominence in 1997 when Princess Diana famously walked through an active minefield in Angola.
&nbsp;
Harry received a warm round of applause as he took the stage for an eight-minute speech, expressing how the charity&#8217;s work in Angola meant a &#8220;great deal&#8221; to his late mother. With a solemn expression, he stated, &#8220;Carrying on her legacy is a responsibility that I take incredibly seriously.&#8221;

&nbsp;
&#8216;And I think we all know how much she would want us to finish this particular job. We are all here because we are a band of true believers, fighting for a mine free world.&#8217;
&nbsp;
Wearing a navy suit with a Halo Trust pin on his lapel, he recalled following in his mother&#8217;s footsteps in 2019 when he visited Angola, 22 years after Diana had walked through minefields in the African country.
&nbsp;
Harry spoke of the many changes that he had gone through since his visit five years ago, including becoming a father for the second time with the birth of daughter Lilibet in 2021.
&nbsp;
And he said although you don&#8217;t need to have children to have a &#8216;stake in the future of our planet&#8217;, the Duke said his mother would have been &#8216;horrified&#8217; to know that anyone&#8217;s children or grandchildren live in a world still &#8216;infested with mines&#8217;.
&nbsp;
In an apparent nod to Diana he issued a rallying cry to &#8216;finish the job&#8217; as he said: &#8216;Tomorrow let&#8217;s wake up and get back to work, let&#8217;s renew our commitments and let&#8217;s finish the job for all our sakes.
&nbsp;
&#8216;So we too can look back in awe and relief and so those who started this recovery and regeneration many years ago can rest knowing we really did finish the job.&#8217;
&nbsp;
Earlier today, Harry appeared on stage in New York to discuss mental health and climate change with two young winners of a legacy award given in Princess Diana&#8217;s memory.
&nbsp;
The Duke said his late mother would be &#8216;proud&#8217; of them as he took part in the 14th Concordia Annual Summit in support of The Diana Award on his eight-day solo trip to the East Coast and the UK.
&nbsp;
Harry, who cracked his knuckles and looked nervous as he sat down on stage, spoke of the importance of mental wellness at an event where participants talked about their climate anxiety.

&nbsp;
He personally interviewed Chiara Riyanti Hutapea Zhang from Indonesia and Christina Williams from Jamaica, who received The Legacy Award in memory of Diana, Princess of Wales, joking: &#8216;For some reason I’ve been given the microphone to ask the questions’.
&nbsp;
He told them: &#8216;I applaud you for having the confidence to be on this stage. I know my mother would be incredibly proud of you guys. Your activism is true to how my mother lived her life&#8217;.
&nbsp;
Harry, wearing a navy suit and tie with a Diana Award pin on his lapel, asked: &#8216;Do you feel like leaders and people in positions of power are listening to you?&#8217;, adding that he wanted the The Diana Award to help their campaigning to tackle climate change and bring influence around the world.
&nbsp;
And when asked what gives him hope for the future he said: &#8216;I have said it before years ago and I&#8217;ll say it again. The younger generation is what gives me hope. The courage you have gives me hope. Everyone of us needs courage to move the dial in this world, probably more than ever. We need to listen and act on what you say because it is your future that will be stolen and that is unacceptable&#8217;.
&nbsp;
His decision to jet off alone to New York to meet royals and celebrities before a solo trip to Britain shows he is determined to &#8216;carve out&#8217; new opportunities and &#8216;assert himself&#8217; after turning 40, experts told MailOnline today.
&nbsp;
The Duke is away from Montecito for the next eight days and went to a California benefit organised by Kevin Costner on Saturday, without his American wife.
&nbsp;
Harry has always made an effort to continue his mother&#8217;s &#8216;unfinished&#8217; work, revealing in 2022 that he felt &#8216;obligated&#8217; to live out her legacy &#8216;as much as possible&#8217;.

&nbsp;
In a podcast interview, Harry told former rugby player Gareth Thomas: &#8216;I think once you get to meet people and you see the suffering around the world, you can&#8217;t turn, I certainly can&#8217;t turn, my back on that.
&nbsp;
&#8216;Then add in the fact that my mum&#8217;s work was unfinished, I feel obligated to try and continue that as much as possible.&#8217;
&nbsp;
He added: &#8216;I could never fill her shoes, especially in this particular space because of what she did and what she stood for and how vocal she was about this issue.&#8217;
&nbsp;
Harry&#8217;s participation had started hypothesis that he might be in the city simultaneously as his sibling Ruler William who is thought to going to the third yearly Earthshot Prize Advancement Highest point at The Square Lodging on September 24.
&nbsp;
It&#8217;s obscure assuming he will go to without a doubt, however he was available last year at a similar occasion.
&nbsp;
Assuming Ruler William comes to New York when Harry is there, it&#8217;s reasonable the siblings will stay away from each other, as a source told The Sunday Times in August that the kin hadn&#8217;t spoken in &#8216;two years.&#8217;
&nbsp;
It was said that the last time they talked was at their grandma Sovereign Elizabeth&#8217;s burial service in September 2022.
&nbsp;
The insider depicted the &#8216;alienation&#8217; as &#8216;awfully miserable,&#8217; adding that Sovereign William doesn&#8217;t actually need Harry at his crowning liturgy when the opportunity arrives.

In an emotional address at the Halo charity event, Prince Harry emphasized his deep commitment to continuing his mother Diana’s legacy. He stated, “Carrying on Diana’s legacy is something I take very seriously,” highlighting the enduring impact of her work
