Nowruz, the spring equinox, is celebrated as the new year for 3,000 years in West, Central and South Asia, the Balkans, and the Caucasus. Happy New Year to UN Volunteers from all these countries, especially Iran: for them this Nowruz is unlike any other. May peace prevail 🌱

From a handful of UN Volunteers with disabilities in 2016 to more than 300 proudly serving the United Nations in 100 countries now — these maps tell the story of a ten-year journey. Disability inclusion is closer to becoming the new normal thanks to these volunteers and our UN partners
