The International Organizations that Runs the World introduces various international organizations that were created to resolve the conflicts and issues of the world. Each country that we are living in has a different economic, political, social and geographic environment. As transportation and communications have evolved, we have seen robust trade and exchanges between countries. Now, cooperation has become very important. That is why "international organizations" have been created to resolve issues when they occur. People have begun to find a way to achieve peace and harmony, making everyone happy through international organizations.
This book kindly explains the UN, IAEA, WTO, IOC, WHO, and the other international organizations that we can come across very often in media. This book is well organized by subjects such as peace and cooperation, economic development, sports and health, human rights protection, and environment and culture, allowing readers to better understand their roles and missions.
This book presents information in various ways. With the map "See International Organizations at a Glance", the book shows locations of organizations as well as their full names and logos, their years of establishment, and the number of members in an organized way, allowing readers to understand more easily. This book helps kids understand the content better with the photos of the organizations' activities and major organizations' chart.
We hope that children who dream of becoming global leaders can dream big and learn the spirit of International organizations that pursue harmony, peace, inclusive growth, and happiness. This book can be a guide for children who want to do good things for the global development effort and for the happiness of human beings, cooperating with people around the globe.
