Non-governmental organizations
have been partners of the Department of Public Information (DPI)
since its establishment in 1947. Official relationships between
DPI and NGOs date back to 1968. The Economic and Social Council
in its resolution 1297 called on DPI to associate NGOs with
effective information programs in place and thus disseminate
information about issues on the UN’s agenda and the work of
the Organization. Through associated NGOs DPI seeks to reach
people around the world and help them better understand the work
and aims of the United Nations.
