United Nations Organisation (UNO):

  • The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945 after the Second World War by 51 countries.
  • The countries were committed to maintaining international peace and security, developing friendly relations among nations, and promoting social progress, better living standards, and human rights.
  • It was established with an aim of preventing future wars, succeeding the ineffective League of Nations.
  • On 25 April 1945, 50 governments met in San Francisco for a conference and started drafting the UN Charter, which was adopted on 25 June 1945 and took effect on 24 October 1945, when the UN began operations. 
  • The UN is headquartered on international territory in New York City and has other main offices in Geneva, Nairobi, Vienna, and The Hague.

Hence, United Nations Organisation was established on 24 October 1945.
