community harmony
Collective social accord
Community harmony is a state of peaceful coexistence and mutual respect among people living in the same area, especially across different ethnic, religious, or cultural groups.
The phrase appears frequently in government statements and civic discourse: The mayor called for community harmony after the protests.
It can sound aspirational or euphemistic, sometimes papering over genuine tensions rather than addressing them.
