Why is the United Nations in New York City? The Untold Story | United Nations

In the aftermath of World War II, the search for a permanent UN headquarters became one of the most high-profile decisions of the era - involving world leaders, city officials, and influential figures including US President Harry S. Truman, the Rockefeller family and New York City mayor William O'Dwyer. Before the iconic Headquarters was built, the UN operated out of a series of temporary locations across New York - including Hunter College (now Lehman College), where the first Security Council meeting took place in March 1946, and Parkway Village in Queens, a pioneering residential community that housed many UN delegates and staff. Through rare archival footage, historic photography, and expert interviews, this film traces the early years of the UN in New York (1945–1952) and explores the deep political, cultural, and economic ties between the Organization and its host city. As the UN marks 80 years since its first meetings in New York, this story sheds light on a defining moment in both global diplomacy and the city’s history. Featuring: Chris McNickle, New York City historian Rula Hinedi, Chief of the UN Guided Tours Section Duane Tananbaum, Emeritus Professor, Lehman College Archival materials: The Todd Webb Archive New York City Municipal Archives NY State Archives Indiana University Moving Image Archive 00:00:00 NYC After WWII 00:01:30 Why New York Won the UN Headquarters 00:02:43 The Rockefeller Deal 00:04:23 The UN's Early Days in New York City 00:05:43 First Security Council Session in NYC 00:06:17 Housing Diplomats in a Segregated City 00:07:54 The UN's Legacy & New York Today

Turning Promises into Progress - SDG Media Zone | United Nations

Intergenerational Leadership for Climate Justice and a Sustainable Future. The climate crisis is one of the greatest challenges of our time and without urgent action it will continue to accelerate. It is our collective responsibility to leave behind a world that is safe and livable for future generations. But there is still reason to have hope: climate solutions are now readily available and cost-effective to implement. Meaningful youth engagement is a fundamental human right and a non-negotiable strategy to raise climate ambition. From grassroots campaigns to global advocacy, youth-led movements are sparking hope, driving recognition of urgent realities, and transforming calls for climate justice into action. This intergenerational conversation will explore why it is essential to elevate young and diverse voices in the fight for the future of people and the planet. Speakers: Charitie Ropati, UN Secretary-General's Youth Advisory Group on Climate Change, indigenous climate justice advocate, and water engineer Mary Robinson, member of the Elders and former chair, first woman President of Ireland and former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Russell Reed, Climate Activist, We Are Family Foundation Lead Delegate & Co-Architect of the NDC Youth Clause Campaign Moderator: Justin Worland, Senior Correspondent, TIME SDG Media Zone website: https://www.un.org/en/sdgmediazone

Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade - UN Chief's Message | United Nations

Video message by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, on the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade (25 March 2026). "Today we commemorate the victims of a staggering crime: Millions of people stolen from their families and communities in Africa. Trafficked across the Atlantic. And — if they survived the journey — enslaved in the Americas. Millions more were born into bondage, brutally exploited for their labour, and denied their basic humanity. We honour their quiet resilience and courageous acts of open resistance. This global order prevailed for over 400 years — and haunts our world even now. In systems and institutions shaped and enriched by chattel slavery. In social and economic inequalities rooted in past injustices. And in biases that permeate our culture and impact us all. On this International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade, we are called to confront these legacies. By rejecting the false narrative of racial difference and the ugly lie of white supremacy. By dismantling racism — online, in the media, in schools, at work, in politics, and within ourselves. And by working for truth, justice, and repair. I welcome the initial steps by some governments to address the consequences of slavery. But far bolder actions — by many more Member States — are needed. Including commitments to respect African countries’ ownership of their own resources. And steps to ensure their equal participation and influence in the global financial architecture and the UN Security Council. Together, let us commit to a world where all people live and thrive in dignity".

Rewriting a Gender-Equal Future: Data, Tech and the 2030 Deadline - SDG Media Zone | United Nations

With just five years left to deliver the 2030 Agenda, the clock is ticking—and gender equality is slipping backward. The Gender Snapshot 2025, by UN Women and UN DESA, sounds the alarm: new tech once hailed as a game-changer is now weaponized against women, with generative AI threatening their jobs at nearly double the rate of men's. Yet closing the gender digital divide could lift 30 million women out of poverty and add $1.5 trillion to global GDP by 2030. Speakers: Bjørg Sandkjær, Assistant Secretary-General for Policy Coordination, United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA) Sarah Hendriks, Director of Policy, Programme and Intergovernmental Division (UN Women, Anoushka Sinha, Founder & Director of Anupam Foundation, Human Rights Activist & Forbes 30 Under 30 Roya Mahboob, Founder of the Digital Citizen Fund Moderator: Elaine Reyes, News Anchor UN insider & Americas Now Show, CGTN America SDG Media Zone website: https://www.un.org/en/sdgmediazone
