The discussion will be led by long time UNA activist - Sam Romano - who will talk about the following:
The history and significance of the U.N. International Day of Peace
The upcoming - United Nations Summit of the Future (September 22-23) - The summit hopes to provide a blueprint for a re-energized and more effective United Nations that will better deal with a myriad of global concerns - i.e. poverty and sustainable development, climate change, peace and security, human rights, weapons proliferation, health crises, care for refugees, safe management of AI, militarization of space, etc . .
Sam Romano will touch on the U.N. 's potential and limitations in addressing these many concerns as well as ideas for how U.S. citizens can help the U.N. in their cause for promoting peace and justice.
