Answer:

THE SIX MAIN UN ORGANS

There are six main organs of the

United Nations—the General Assembly, the

Security Council, the Trusteeship Council, the

Economic and Social Council, the

International Court of Justice, and the

Secretariat. The Court has its seat at The

Hague, Netherlands. All other organs are

based at United Nations Headquarters in New

York.

While Headquarters in New York

serves as the principal nerve centre of the

organization, several important activities are

directed from offices located in centres

around the world. Meetings and various UN

bodies are often held away from

Headquarters. The Economic and Social

Council, for example, rotates its regular

annual session between and New York, and

special committees of the General Assembly

have frequently held meetings in many

countries around the world. Conferences on

topics such as population, food, the

environment and human rights have been

held in different parts of the world.

The General Assembly

The General Assembly is the main deliberative organ of the United Nations

comprised of all Member States, each of which has one vote, no matter its size or

influence. It may discuss any matter arising under the UN Charter. Decisions on

international peace and security, admitting new Member States and the UN budget

are decided by a two-thirds majority. Other matters are decided by a simple

majority. In recent years, a special

effort has been made to reach

decisions through consensus, rather

than a formal vote. General Assembly

resolutions are only recommendations

to the Member States, but as they

represent the majority of the world’s

view, they carry heavy moral weight

and often lead countries to join

international agreements called

treaties, conventions, and protocols,

etc., and, ultimately, have a positive

influence in the world.

The Assembly’s session lasts a

year, starting in mid-September; the

busy season, during which time most resolutions are adopted, is from September to

December. Special sessions may be requested by the Assembly, at the request of

the Security Council, or at the request of a majority of UN Members.

At the beginning of each regular session in September, the Assembly holds a

two-week general debate at which time heads of State present their views on a wide

range of issues of concern to the international community, from war and terrorism to

disease and poverty. Each year, the General Assembly elects a president who

presides over these meetings as a neutral party that represents the United Nations.

The work of the Assembly is also carried out by its six main committees, the

Human Rights Council, other subsidiary bodies and the UN Secretariat. The six main

committees of the General Assembly are: First Committee (Disarmament and

International Security); Second Committee (Economic and Financial); Third

Committee (Social, Humanitarian and Cultural); Fourth Committee (Special Political

and Decolonization); Fifth Committee (Administrative and Budgetary); and Sixth

Committee (Legal).
