World Federation of UN Associations

 

The World Federation of UN Associations(WFUNA) was inspired by the opening words of the United Nations Charter "We the Peoples", the World Federation of United Nations Associations was established in 1946 as a peoples’ movement for the United Nations. Today the World Federation is a global network of hundreds of thousands of people linked together through United Nations Associations (UNAs) in over 100 nation states. They have many and diverse programs, such as Adopt-a-Minefield, the Millennium Development Goals, Model UN conferences, human rights education and as well they provide regular media and parliamentary briefings on UN matters. As testimony to their valuable role, UNAs are the only national level organizations entitled to use the UN emblem. The Plenary Assembly, the supreme organ of the World Federation, is held every three years. It is in effect a peoples’ assembly for the United Nations, where priority issues of concern to the international community are addressed and elections are held for the leadership positions.
