[#] 71 [Program Name] Intro to the Agencies of the UN [Annotation] 
While the major action of peacekeeping in times of crisis usually takes the spotlight in the media, the UN operates on a daily basis to provide service and assistance to people around the world. Many of these actions are taken in order to help achieve a better standard of living and perhaps, prevent conflicts in the future. Each lesson in this series relates to an individual agency of the UN. The approach here is to quote a news item from the UNwire that is representative of the agency; give a brief description of the mandate of the agency; and provide a classroom activity.
