On International Volunteer Day for Economic and Social Development, we salute the more than one billion people worldwide who are contributing their time and skills to creating a better, safer, more caring and peaceful world.

Today, MINURSO personnel observed a minute of silence to honour our colleagues who have lost their lives while serving in Gaza.

On 26 October, MINURSO commemorated  the National Day of Austria by raising its flag at the Mission HQ in Laayoune next to the UN flag.
