We’re often ‘building bridges’ for peace in the communities we serve, but sometimes we build actual bridges too. Here Brazilian members of our peacekeeping mission in Haiti, MINUSTAH, help assemble a bridge to improve access to a village north of Port-au-Prince. #working4peace

Have you seen our latest film with Goodwill Ambassador @davidbeckham? David’s own tattoos were marks chosen to represent happy or important memories, but millions of children worldwide bear marks of violence that they have not chosen. It’s everyone’s responsibility to speak out against violence and act now. Watch the film, share and help #ENDviolence for good. #nofilter #foreverychild #tattoo #davidbeckham #beckham #tattoos
