Since 1999, the Better World Campaign (BWC) has been on a mission to strengthen the relationship between the U.S. and the United Nations. That’s because we believe American leadership and values on the global stage helps to shape a safer, stronger, more prosperous world.
Launched with a bold vision — and an historic $1 billion gift from philanthropist Ted Turner — BWC brings together policymakers, thought leaders and regular Americans to champion the UN’s lifesaving work — from peacekeeping and humanitarian response to global health and maritime security.
Based in Washington, DC, we make the case every day for why a strong U.S.-UN relationship isn’t just good diplomacy — it’s smart, compassionate foreign policy.
And like the great work of the UN, we don’t go it alone.
We’re part of the UN Foundation, partnering with sister campaigns like the UN Association of the USA and advocates nationwide to tell stories of the UN’s impact around the world and right here in the U.S.
