#FBF to 1969 when this black and white photo was taken of #UnitedNations Headquarters. Pictured are the 39-story UN Secretariat building (right), the General Assembly building (centre), and the Library (foreground). While UNHQ is located in #NYC, the UN has a presence around the world and works for everyone, everywhere -- by promoting peace, responding to #COVID19, protecting refugees, feeding the hungry, addressing climate change, empowering women, responding to humanitarian crises and much more. 📸: UN Photo #FBF #ClimateAction #StandUp4HumanRights #NoToHate #FightRacism #GlobalGoals
