    The United Nations Association is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that supports the work of the United Nations and encourages active civic participation in the most important social and economic issues facing the world today.

    The local chapter, UNA-Houston, offers Houstonians the opportunity to connect with issues confronted by the U.N., from global health and human rights to equitable development and international justice. Also, one of our goals is to encourage U.S. engagement in the UN through educating the public about the value of the system.

    UNA-USA is a force for change

    Through the work of its community-based chapters and over 100 affiliated organizations, UNA-USA creates a powerful national constituency to support the work of the United Nations and to encourage active civic participation in the most important social and economic issues facing the world today. Individual members participate in a variety of grassroots initiatives focusing on U.N. issues such as human rights, poverty, the environment, and global health.

    UNA-USA is a catalyst

    UNA-USA provides a bipartisan forum for analysis and discussion on a wide range of global issues important to America's role in the world. These unique programs position UNA-USA as an incubator of new ideas and approaches for a more effective United Nations.

    UNA-USA is an advocate

    Coordinated by our Washington Office, UNA-USA advocacy efforts support responsible U.S. participation in the U.N. and other multilateral international institutions. UNA-USA serves as a resource for the U.S. government, monitors key international affairs and developments in Congress, and disseminates timely Action Alerts on legislation.

    UNA-USA is an educator

    Local chapters sponsor lectures, seminars, and programs to raise the public's understanding of global issues, with a special on the U.N.'s role in addressing global concerns. For secondary education, UNA-USA provides innovative classroom curricula for students in grades 6-12, the highly acclaimed Model United Nations learning experience, and the high school essay contest.
