As people of faith, we must advocate for responsible United States policies toward the UN. To start, we all deserve to know much more about the United Nations!

Why? Religious groups are important for an active and concerned civil society. Love of Neighbor (formerly Wider Church Ministries) has long been accredited as a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) with the United Nations.&nbsp; This status gives LON &#8211; and by extension DOM and Global Ministries &#8211; the opportunity to address the United Nations on matters of international concern like global civil society, human rights, conflict resolution, and economic and development issues. As a participant in the religious community present at the UN, your representatives participate in coordinated activities of the NGO community in relation to a variety of UN programs and conferences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cThe work of faith groups is extremely powerful.&nbsp; Their continued support at the UN will mean more of a voice for all of us regarding issues surrounding poverty, women, peace and security, environmental sustainability, and the protection of human rights around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nicki Amouri, Global Ministries intern at the UN (2012-2013)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">History at the United Nations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our churches sought international peace and, in 1945, called for the United Nations. They joined the Federal Council of Churches to study &#8220;Six Pillars of Peace,&#8221; which strongly influenced the UN Charter. Church policy statements have long supported the UN as it has sought to &#8220;save succeeding generations from the scourge of war&#8230; to promote social progress and better standards of life&#8221; for all God&#8217;s people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First represented at the UN through the UCC Office for Church in Society and the Board for World Ministries, our churches are present today through the work of Love of Neighbor and Global Ministries as accredited members of the Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) community at the United Nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who represents Global Ministries at the UN?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Donna Bollinger, United Nations Minister, is currently the main representative at the UN. Global Ministries&#8217; interests are represented at various UN and NGO forums by connecting relevant staff and programs with UN information and activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sustainable Development Goals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2016, the UN launched <a href=\"http:\/\/www.un.org\/sustainabledevelopment\/sustainable-development-goals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">17 Sustainable Development Goals<\/a> to complete by 2030. For a Christian faith perspective on the Sustainable Development Goals, check out <a href=\"http:\/\/sdgbook.com\/\">The Sustainability Book<\/a> online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From 2000 to 2015, promoting and advancing the UN&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.un.org\/millenniumgoals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Millennium Development Goals<\/a>&nbsp;were a priority for our work in interpreting how the UN and the church work together. Advancing MDGs, such as greater water-related rights and development, was an important component of the church&#8217;s work with the ecumenical community at the UN.

It suggests peer-to-peer learning modules exploring the relationship between religions, beliefs, and human rights. It provides approaches adapted to faith actors, civil society representatives, and educational institutions. It stimulates an interdisciplinary discussion on \u201cfaith\u201d and \u201crights\u201d in relation to 18 key topics that serve a triple purpose: (1) engaging to ensure ownership, (2) thinking critically to face challenges, and (3) reinforcing the mutual enhancement between faith and rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contacts at the UN<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Donna
