Campaign for the Establishment of a United Nations Parliamentary Assembly

The Campaign for a United Nations Parliamentary Assembly (CUNPA) is a global network of more than 300 non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and 1,500 current and former parliamentarians from around 150 countries devoted to establishing a United Nations Parliamentary Assembly.

[10] The policy of the Campaign is based on the "Appeal for the Establishment of a Parliamentary Assembly at the United Nations" which was presented at launch events in over ten countries during April and May 2007.

[11] 552 persons were initial signatories to the petition, among them parliamentarians and individuals such as Nobel Prize laureates, Right Livelihood Award laureates, civil society leaders, three former prime ministers, several former foreign ministers and Boutros Boutros-Ghali (former UN Secretary General).

In a statement on the financial crisis issued in April 2008 this position was confirmed and outlined in more detail.

[21][22] The Campaign has also been discussed in motions at the German,[23] Icelandic,[24] Canadian,[25] Mercosur[26] and European[27] parliaments, among others.
