On 26 June 1945 a momentous event in world history unfolded as delegates from 50 nations gathered in San Francisco to sign the United Nations Charter.
This landmark agreement marked the establishment of the United Nations, an international organisation dedicated to fostering peace, security, and cooperation among countries worldwide.
The signing ceremony, held at the San Francisco War Memorial and Performing Arts Centre, symbolised a collective commitment to preventing future conflicts and promoting global harmony.
With the horrors of World War II fresh in their minds, the founding nations aimed to create a platform for dialogue and collaboration, laying the foundation for a new era of international relations.
