United Nations News Reader
The United Nations News Reader pulls all of the news that is relevant to the United Nations. Categories include: Peace and Security, Law, Crime Prevention, Health, Poverty, Food Security, Human Rights, and much more. My favorite feature is that it lists the top articles in the past 24 hours, seven days, and overall. The UN Affairs section is also very interesting.
