The flags outside UN Headquarters are raised manually by UN Security Officers every weekday morning at approximately 8 am and lowered every weekday at around 4 pm, except in cases of bad weather. The 193 Member States of the United Nations are each assigned a flagpole, organized in English alphabetical order from north to south at UN Headquarters. In 2015, its non-member observer States (Holy See and the State of Palestine) got assigned their own flagpoles. On weekends, only the UN flag is raised. However, during UN General Assembly high-level week held in September each year, the flags of the UN and the world remain flying around the clock.

Headline The Trusteeship Council Chamber 
Caption Description The Trusteeship Council Chamber at United Nations Headquarters, designed by Finn Juhl, a Danish architect. In the delegates' area the walls are lined with strips of ash wood. Clear, contrasting colours used to decorate the air-conditioning units in the latticed ceiling are repeated in the carpet, which, like most of the furnishings in the room, was made in Denmark. On a pedestal near the windows stands the statute of a girl with arms upraised, reading towards a bird which hovers with outspread wings above her head. Carved out of teak wood by Henri Starcke, a Danish sculptor, it symbolizes Mankind and Hope. The Trusteeship Council Chamber has recently been modified for use as conference room, when necessary, with facilities for the participation of over a hundred members.
