Children play on a water slide during UNRWA Summer Fun Weeks.
Thanks to a donation from the Government of Finland, over 150,000 children in Gaza are participating in Summer Fun Weeks 2013, a two-week summer programme organised by the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). The programme features activities designed to encourage creativity and a psychosocial well-being like football, kite flying, drawing, and traditional games.

Children jump rope in a rubble-strewn street in the Delmas 32 neighbourhood of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) is continuing to work with national and international agencies to clear Port-au-Prince of the piles of debris left over from the earthquake that struck the city on 12 January, 2010.

Beginning their work on this year’s UN Day (24 October), Ghanaian engineers with the UN mission in Mali (MINUSMA) renovated a school in Taliko, a marginalized neighbourhood of Bamako. The school had hosted several displaced families after deadly flash floods hit the Malian capital this summer.

Headline UNKRA Gives Assistance to Mary Knoll Clinic in Pusan

Caption Description At the clinic operated by the Mary Knoll Sisters in Pusan, the United Nations Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA) is helping thousands of patients through its contribution of equipment and supplies to enable the clinic to provide orthopedic treatment for children suffering from tuberculosis of the bone and poliomyelitis. A series of disastrous fires have added to the distress of the population, and last year alone the clinic treated nearly 500,000 cases. Long before daybreak each morning, patients pack the courtyard and the alleyway leading to the clinic, as they patiently await their turn for examination and treatment. At the hands of skilled and devoted Sisters, doctors and nurses, they receive whatever medical assistance their condition requires.
Here, at the clinic, a youngster registers his protest at being ""weighed-in"" during one of the periodic health examinations which the clinic provides for children.
