UNICs work in partnership with members of civil society who are actively involved with issues of concern to the United Nations. NGOs count on UNICs as partners in organizing seminars, exhibits and commemorative events, focusing on such key issues as the promotion of human rights and peace and security, the eradication of poverty and protection of the environment. NGOs have worked with the Department of Public Information since 1946, and are indispensable partners for UN efforts at the country level. There are currently over 1,500 NGOs associated with DPI.
