The United Nations, established 59 years ago, is a central international organisation with a crucial role in today’s international relations. It encompasses more than 30 programs and funds, and a series of specialised organisations and agencies. The UN is a convergence point of international co-operation in seeking the best solutions to today’s global issues. Since becoming its member in 1992, Croatia has actively participated in solving the international political, economic and social issues of today.
