issues that transcend national boundaries and cannot be resolved by any one country acting alone.</p> <p>To its initial goals of safeguarding peace, protecting human rights, establishing the framework for international justice and promoting economic and social progress, in the seven decades since its creation the United Nations has added on new challenges, such as AIDS, big data and climate change.</p> <p>While conflict resolution and peacekeeping continue to be among its most visible efforts, the UN, along with its specialized agencies, is also engaged in a wide array of activities to improve people’s lives around the world – from disaster relief, through education and advancement of women, to peaceful uses of atomic energy.</p> <p>This section offers an overview of some of these issues, and links to other resources, where you can get additional information.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="view-content"> <div id="views-bootstrap-grid-1"
