DKG UN 2023 Document- ideas:
DKG became an NGO (non-governmental organization) in 1995. Starting in 1997, Anne-Marie Carlson of The Delta Kappa Gamma Society International formed a team of volunteer experts to enable educators to develop new and better ways of teaching about the United Nations and its civil society partners. CTAUN, the Committee on Teaching about the UN, provides a resource center, bringing together materials developed throughout the UN System and makes available exemplary materials used by governments and NGOs, teachers, and curriculum specialists. CTAUN presents an Excellence in Education Award to recognize teachers’ work to help students find ways to learn about the goals and work of the UN.
