I would like to express my deep gratitude to everyone around the world who has helped save lives and livelihoods this year amid #COVID19. Your service & courage are an example to us all.

In loving memory of Sr. Janet Gottschalk, first MMS Representative at the UN who passed on Jan.18, 2022. Her voice played a critical role for the MMS decision to establish a relationship with the UN beginning with the formal accreditation to the DPI in 1994. Rest in power, Janet!
