2024 marks the 30th observance of the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, one of the darkest chapters in human history. More than one million people – overwhelmingly Tutsi, but also Hutu and others who opposed the genocide – were systematically killed in less than three months.

Sheep graze on the lawn of the Palais des Nations, the United Nations Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, as part of an environmentally-friendly tradition held every year in October and November. The sheep's grazing allows for the lawn to be naturally cut and for other organic maintenance work to be done.

Headline 1987 - International Year of Shelter for the Homeless the Goal: Adequate Shelter for All by 2000

Caption Description About 100 million people around the world have no home at all. As many as a billion - in cities and in rural areas - have shelter so inadequate, it endangers their health and wellbeing. These numbers are growing. To highlight the severity of the situation and galvanize efforts to remedy it, the United Nations General Assembly has declared 1987 the International Year of Shelter for the Homeless. It has called particularly for improved living conditions for the poor and disadvantaged in developing countries. With the year 2000 as a projected deadline, the UN is working with Governments, involved organizations and local people to develop, communicate and put into practice the best methods for meeting this most fundamental of human needs.
