Whether you live in a mountain village in Asia or a metropolitan area in Africa, in the middle of New York City or on a small Pacific island, the UN is part of your life in ways you might not expect: from enabling the international postal system, to coordinating international civil aviation standards and telephone codes.

Ahead of Friday’s #UNDay, scroll through to see parts of our new exhibition 'Shared Lives, Shared Future' showcasing the UN's impact around the world.
