The San Diego Chapter of the United Nations Association of the United States of America (UNA-USA San Diego) is a program of the U.N. Foundation dedicated to inform, inspire and mobilize the American People to support the principles and vital work of the United Nations (U.N.). Established in 1946, UNA-USA San Diego focuses on advocacy efforts and education programs through public events and collaborations. It thrives to serve as a resource for the residents of the San Diego area on the broad agenda of critical global issues addressed by the United Nations and its agencies: peacekeeping, human rights, humanitarian relief, economic development, and education. UNA-USA San Diego organizes a variety of programs and events focused on education, health, the arts, and national/international relations. We work in close collaboration with our diverse community in an effort to raise awareness about our shared responsibility as Global Citizen. Our organization is proud to hold consultative status with the U.N.’s Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). This special status allows us to connect people, ideas and resources to promote and support the U.N. in its endeavor to solve the most pressing global challenges facing humankind. We offer various opportunities to become an active member of this dynamic and influential community. Visit us at www.unasd.org.
