  • Yes, if only people would be really and truly aware of what the UN's achievements are, some of the reactions of this blog would be completely different. Just read the annex of the report below where some of the results of the UN and its different agencies are clearly shown and then you will realize that given the very little money we give them, they are doing a whole lot.

International Day of Peace, 21 September - 0 views

  • The International Day of Peace, observed each year on 21 September, is a global call for ceasefire and non-violence. This year the Secretary-General is calling on governments and citizens to focus on nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation. On 13 June 2009, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon launched a multiplatform campaign under the slogan WMD – We Must Disarm to mark the 100-day countdown which lead to the International Day of Peace on 21 September.
