About UNA-UK
Founded in 1945, the United Nations Association – UK (UNA-UK) is the country’s foremost advocate for UK action at the UN; the UK's leading source of analysis on the UN; and a vibrant grassroots movement of 20,000 people from all walks of life. We are the only charity in the UK devoted to building support for the UN amongst policymakers, opinion-formers and the public. Our mission is to build movements for systemic transformation at the UN; to advocate for UK action for global cooperation. We work towards this goal by:
- Explaining how the UN works and what it can realistically achieve.
- Connecting people and organisations to the UN's work and values.
- Providing an interface between the UN and the UK.
- Calling for active and progressive UK leadership at the UN.
- Stimulating debate and action on how to make the UN more effective, transparent, inclusive and accountable.
- Convening key players from all sectors, in the UK and internationally, to promote multilateral solutions to global problems.
- Equipping our members and supporters to further all of these aims.
