NYC Mayor's Office for International Affairs

NYC is honored to partner with Geneva, Switzerland in using the #VLR and #GlobalGoals to help cities #BuildBackBetter, cleaner, and more equitable!

The Mayor's Office for International Affairs is closed today, May 31st 2021, in observance of Memorial Day. Thank you for your service.

"Small but mighty," is today's #MondayMotivation from our #JuniorAmbassdors! Students from Icahn Charter School 4 in the #Bronx were joined by Amb. King from @SVGMissionUN Commissioner Abeywardena. They discussed the #GlobalGoals #ClimateChange and the importance of youth activism.

Today our JuniorAmbassadors from Middle School 442 - Brooklyn, NY were joined by Amb. Flynn & Lt. Col. Kane from the Ireland Mission to the UN. Our JuniorAmbassdors had some great questions about pollution & #GlobalGoal 6 for United Nations colleagues. They also learned about diplomacy & listening to others.

On this #UNDay, we volunteered with our #UN partners to help our fellow NYers keep food on their tables. Thank you @NYCommonPantry and @InvHandsDeliver for all you do for NYC

Happy UN Day! Today we are volunteering with our colleagues at the @UN at @nycommonpantry! How are you celebrating UN Day? Tell us in the comments below! @InvHandsDeliver @NYCService

As NYC and the world continue to fight COVID-19, we must remain committed to the #GlobalGoals.
