«UN-80: Unfiltered» photo exhibition opens in Astana

An exhibition showcasing a history in photographs of people, missions, and the work of the United Nations around the world has opened at the Presidential Center in Astana to mark the UN’s 80th anniversary. The photographs stand out for capturing the genuine, unposed emotions of their subjects – doctors and nurses on the frontlines of the pandemic, peacekeepers providing aid in conflict zones, diplomats and heads of state making pivotal decisions, and volunteers devoted to the cause of peace and humanitarian work. Notably, some of the images also highlight Kazakhstan’s contributions as a UN member for more than three decades.
