The International Day of Peace, sometimes unofficially known as World Peace Day, is observed annually on 21 September. It is dedicated to peace, and specifically the absence of war and violence, such as might be occasioned by a temporary ceasefire in a combat zone for humanitarian aid access. The day was first celebrated in 1982, and is kept by many nations, political groups, military groups, and peoples. To inaugurate the day, the “Peace Bell” is rung at UN Headquarters (in New York City). The bell is cast from coins donated by children from all continents except Africa, and was a gift from the United Nations Association of Japan.

The Security Council held its first session on 17 January 1946 at Church House, Westminster, London. Since its first meeting, the Council, which exists in continuous session, has travelled widely, holding meetings in many cities, such as Paris and Addis Ababa, as well as at its current permanent home at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City.

Countries contribute money to a pool through a quota system from which countries with payment imbalances can borrow funds temporarily. The IMF’s membership is divided along income lines: certain countries provide the financial resources while others use these resources. Both developed country “creditors” and developing country “borrowers” are members of the IMF. The developed countries provide the financial resources but rarely enter into IMF loan agreements; they are the creditors.
