The United Nations and its work bring you into the exciting real world, with all its complexities and the desires and aims of its 6 1/2 billion people. This is too exciting, too important, to sit on the sidelines.
Did you know that the United Nations System includes agencies devoted to human rights? refugees? children? women's development, reproductive rights, and promotion of the advancement of women? the environment? housing/habitat? meteorological events? aviation? funding for development? and many more?
How can you support the work of the United Nations? By telling others about the UN and its programs. By keeping up-to-date on UN activities. By encouraging your school system to teach about the UN. If you're a student, by joining Model UN or forming a UNA Student Alliance.
