The Doers of Democracy: An exhibition of photographs organized by UNDEF

'The Doers of Democracy', an exhibition of photographs organized by UNDEF, was displayed in the Visitors' Lobby at UN Headquarters in New York from 9 May to 15 July 2011, and at the Palais des Nations in Geneva in September 2011. The photographs, artifacts and publications in the exhibition all come from UNDEF projects around the world. The items emanate from just a small share of UNDEF’s projects, and represent a fraction of the work done every day by the courageous men and women around the world who strive to make the voice of their communities heard, their human rights respected and their democratic participation felt. The exhibition was opened with a message from UN Secretary-General BAN Ki-Moon.
