About us
United Nations Volunteers (UNV) is the UN organization that contributes to peace and development through volunteerism worldwide. Volunteerism is a powerful means of engaging people in tackling development challenges, and it can transform the pace and nature of development. Volunteerism benefits both society at large and the individual volunteer by strengthening trust, solidarity, and reciprocity among citizens, and by purposefully creating opportunities for participation. UNV contributes to peace and development by advocating for recognition of volunteers, working with partners to integrate volunteerism into development programming, and mobilizing an increasing number and diversity of volunteers, including experienced UN Volunteers, throughout the world. UNV embraces volunteerism as universal and inclusive, and recognizes volunteerism in its diversity as well as the values that sustain it: free will, commitment, engagement and solidarity. Based in Bonn, Germany, UNV is active in around 130 countries every year. UNV, with Field Units in 60 countries, is represented worldwide through the offices of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and reports to the UNDP Executive Board.

In the heart of conflict, where pain and hope intertwine, UN Volunteers are serving on the frontlines, navigating the complexities of war-torn regions. 61 volunteers stood strong in the State of Palestine 🇵🇸, with 18 stationed in the #Gaza Strip when the war erupted. Six months have passed since the conflict began, but volunteers carry on. Their commitment transcends borders, politics, and fear. Let us honor their sacrifice. Let us recognize that even in the darkest hours, humanity persists—a testament to the spirit of those who serve selflessly. 🔊 Listen to the testimony of Anas Hilles. In the heart of Gaza, where water scarcity is a relentless adversary, he stepped forward. His mission? To alleviate the suffering of families who had known thirst far too intimately ⬇️. 🤍 #UNVolunteers #Palestine #Resilience #HumanitarianService
