The Academic Council on the United Nations System (ACUNS)

is the umbrella organization of our working group.

ACUNS is a professional association of nearly 800 educational and research institutions and individual scholars, teachers, and practitioners active in the work and study of multilateral relations, global governance, and international cooperation.

ACUNS focuses special attention on the programs and agencies of the United Nations system and other intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations that play a role in managing common problems on the global agenda. 

Core activities promote research and teaching on the UN system and dialogue between and among academics and practitioners from across the globe:

For example, ACUNS Annual Meetings provide members and friends with a unique opportunity to discuss UN-related research and policy. The interactive website offers members the opportunity to post work in progress and get feedback from other ACUNS members; profile their book-length publications; and share ideas and resources for teaching, among other services.
