ISLAMABAD:

The United Nations in Pakistan will hold a family-oriented event featuring various activities at the Pakistan National Council of the Arts (PNCA) on Saturday to celebrate UN Day.

The event will mark the 79th anniversary of the United Nations as it officially came into being with the ratification of the UN Charter by Member States on October 24, 1945.

Pakistan joined the UN two years later, inaugurating a nearly eight-decade-long strong relationship. UN Day in Islamabad will feature free live performances by Pakistani artists, including Shae Gill and the Leif Larson Music Centre in Hunza.

A Career Booth will help people learn how they can apply for a career at the UN, with UN Human Resources teams sharing tips and advice. At a 'UN Market Place', the public will meet the teams of 23 UN agencies operating in Pakistan, and learn about their activities.

An exhibition will feature the common history between the UN and Pakistan. Fun activities for children, selfie corners, food stalls and giveaways will also be featured.
