UNA-UK believes that the UN is an essential tool for building a safer, fairer and more sustainable world. But in order for it to be effective, it needs the support of governments and individuals alike.

Ahead of UN Day – 24 October 2012 – we are asking UNA members and supporters to pledge their support for the UN by signing the petition below.

We also want to canvass your views on what the UN's priorities should be, and how we can work to make the organisation stronger, more credible and better-equipped to perform its life-saving functions.

UNA-UK will use your pledges and ideas to demonstrate to the UN and the UK government that there is a critical mass of support for the UN in this country and around the world.
