On October 24th, 1945, the charter of the united nation consecrated the birth of the U.N.O as an international organization. it was created to promote world's peace and security and to encourage social progress. its successes in the fields of social develpment, decolonization human rights, disarmament and peace keeping have been the major achievements in the second half of the twentieth century. The U.N represents the people's highest aspirations towards a world free from wars, poverty oppression and sufferings.
Celebrated in 1995, the 50th anniversary coincides with a turning point in modern history. in fact, quick changes having incalculable impact are taking place on the world's political scene. countries which tought, no longer ago, that they were completly autonomous, are now intimately linked together, if they have to live in a world where peace justice and prosperity prevail.
The 50th anniversary has not only been an occasion to think about the results so far obtained, but also to define the orientations for the next century. in the years to come, the U.N will be more indispensable. it will have a greater efficiency than in the past if the peoples and governments are conscious of the role it can play in bringing them closer to each other around the same goals.
