A Better
World Starts HERE.
It starts in our homes. In our schools and
communities. In our country. It starts with YOU.
The United Nations Association in Canada (UNA-Canada) is a registered charity, founded in 1946, with a mandate to educate and engage Canadians in support for, and understanding of, the United Nations and its issues which have a global impact. A Canadian NGO, UNA-Canada runs a wide variety of programmes and activities to build Canadian capacity to identify and address emerging international issues on a national basis and to provide foresight and policy research capacity underpinning this innovative programming. With a professional, national secretariat in Ottawa and a regional office in Vancouver, Toronto and Calgary,UNA-Canada derives much of its strength and community outreach from its network of twenty volunteer-based branches and contact points. Working with the private and public sectors, academia, community leaders, like-minded NGOs as well as multilateral organizations, UNA-Canada provides a place for Canadians to offer their made-in-Canada solutions to challenges confronting the global commons and to develop skills in living together in peace and prosperity. Key programmes target Canadian youth, human rights, sustainable development, environment, peace building and corporate social responsibility. Take a stance, create positive change, become a UNA-Canada member! For more information, and for the full scope of our work, we invite you to visit our website at www.unac.org.
