Answer:

The United Nations (U.N.), headquartered in New York, is an international organization of 193 member-states. It was founded in 1945 to prevent another world war.1

The U.N.'s founding charter mandates four ambitious purposes. It maintains international peace, which is a full-time job in itself. The U.N.'s other three missions help to achieve that overarching goal. It fosters friendly relations between its members, it solves international problems and promotes human rights, and it harmonizes its members' actions.

The U.N. also has a host of other initiatives:

Helps countries reduce hunger, disease, and illiteracy

Promotes economic development and sustainable development

Protects refugees

Provides disaster relief

Counters terrorism

Promotes nuclear non-proliferation

Clears landmines

Protects indigenous cultures

Upholds international law

HOPE THIS HELPS :) PLEASE MARK AS BRILLIANT IF IM RIGHT :)
