UN Matters
A key strand of UNYSA's work is to strengthen teaching about the UN. In December 2009, UNA-UK teamed up with the UK National Commission for UNESCO to develop a teaching pack on the United Nations.
Under the leadership of UNYSA's Model UN and Education Officers, UNYSA members are encouraged to make use of the pack in their outreach to schools.
