Through the stories told in this book, you will see how much the United Nations is a part of everyone's life & how much we rely on its programmes. The stories illustrate, accurately, the direct & vital connections existing between the world Organization & your activities. The book is organized in such a way that the stories appear under the relevant UN agency.
