The United Nations Association
(UNA) is a membership based, voluntary, non-governmental organisation. We
campaign, educate and fundraise to turn the ideals of the United Nations into a reality. UNA-UK is part of the World Federation of UNAs.
Although totally independent of
the UN system and not funded by it, we aim to ensure that the UN is used more
effectively and creatively in all areas where it works. UNA is deeply committed
to the ideals of the UN and also works for its strengthening which often means
pressing for reform and working for positive change.
The Purley and Sutton Branch has
just amalgamated with Croydon Branch to become Sutton and Croydon Branch,
it is affiliated to the Croydon Cluster and is part of the London and
South-East Region. The Branch regularly organizes talks, debates policy and
co-ordinates a long-established school’s debating competition, across the two
boroughs.
