About Us
Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Information Center in Washington, DC was one of the first of the ¡°Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵICs¡± -- a global network established soon after the United Nations was founded to ensure the public can access its work.
We continue to be a resource for schools, non-profit organizations, and the U.S. government. We prioritize requests from the U.S. State Department, National Security Council, and Congress to meet with senior officials who regularly brief the Security Council and others at Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Headquarters in New York, coordinating closely with the U.S. Mission to the United Nations.
We also assist those interested in the United Nations¡¯ work around the world, including the thousands of students and teachers who participate in Model Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ clubs in the United States and more than 120 other nations.
Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵIC-Washington is part of the United Nations Department of Global Communications led by .
