U.N. Conference on International Organization |
||||
|
San Francisco, April 1945 |
||||
|
San Francisco, California hosted perhaps the single most important event in the history of United Nations development; the Conference on International Organization (UNCIO) from April 25th to June 26th, 1945. Official representatives from the countries signing the 'United Nations Pact of 1942', as well as advisors and observers from peace organizations, attended to complete an agreement known as the 'Charter of the United Nations' by which future international peace would be guaranteed. |
||||
|
Plans for a Conference on International Organization germinated from discussions during the Moscow conference of October 30, 1943. During that meeting, representatives from the United States, Great Britain, Russia and China agreed to host a meeting creating a new world-wide peace organization to replace the 'League of Nations'. |
