agenda
1. Quick self-introductions, with first time attendees invited to take a couple minutes.
2. Pablo Castro, President of UNA-SF will speak about UNA-SF for 10-15 minutes. UNA-SF is a member of the UNA SF Bay Area Council of Organizations and at the same time the Council is a project of UNA-SF.
3. We will have a report on the UN 69th Anniversary Human Rights Luncheon scheduled for October 19 at the UU Church followed by discussion. Tickets to the luncheon will be available with the idea that we will take several and sell to friends and colleagues. Leaflet for UN 69th is available online here.
4. We will have a report on the UN 70th followed by discussion. There is an exciting possibility that we will be able to secure UN Women Exec Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka to keynote a big celebration at the War Memorial. There is a likelihood that a plaque designating the War Memorial as the birthplace of the UN will be unveiled with important politicians participating. A first meeting of the all important UN 70th Committee is tentatively scheduled for Saturday August 30.
