Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The U.S. Institute of Peace lit its headquarters in blue on October 24, 2015, in honor of the United Nations’ 70th anniversary. USIP’s dramatic building, on the National Mall overlooking the Lincoln Memorial and the Potomac River, is perhaps Washington’s most prominent architectural tribute to global peacebuilding.

USIP joined landmarks worldwide—from Australia's Sydney Opera House to Egypt’s Great Pyramids, to New York’s Empire State Building—that were illuminated in “U.N. blue” to honor the United Nations’ founding and its commitment to resolving conflicts. As America’s national institution for advancing international peace and security, USIP works with the United Nations—and with governments, humanitarian groups, citizens’ movements and community leaders—to reduce and resolve violent conflicts around the world.
