Thank a UN peacekeeper
Right now, over 120,000 men and women from 118 countries are serving as UN peacekeepers, risking their lives in the world's most difficult regions to rebuild societies wracked by violence and to support people who have known little but war. Please take a moment to thank them.
Support the MDGs
End poverty by 2015 - this is the historic promise world leaders made at the UN Millennium Summit in 2000, which agreed the Millennium Development Goals. The UN Millennium Campaign supports and inspires people from around the world to take action to raise awareness of the Goals and encourage leaders to keep their promise. Join the Campaign and show your support.
