United Nations Day - Celebrating 75 Years

On the historic day, October 24th, 75 years ago, the United Nations officially came into being after the ratification of the UN Charter by the world’s biggest countries. We celebrate this year’s theme ‘The Future We Want, the UN We Need: Reaffirming our Collective Commitment to Multilateralism’.

The United Nations Information Centre (UNIC) in Canberra thanks all members of the UN Youth Australia and the United Nations Association of Australia – Young Professionals, and all the members of the United Nations Association of New Zealand – UNANZ and UN Youth New Zealand who all dedicated their time in support of the United Nations.
