Résumé
Proclaims 2001 the International Year of Volunteers; designates the UN Volunteers programme, without prejudice to existing priorities, as the focal point for preparations, implementation and follow-up of the Year in close collaboration with other organizations of the UN system, and encourages the UN Volunteers to continue the process of close collaboration and partnership with Governments and international and national volunteer and non-governmental organizations, in particular, with regard to the preparations for and implementation of the Year; appeals to Member States, as well as all other participants in the observance of the Year, to highlight 2001 as a special occasion benefiting the peoples of the world in their quest for a better life for all, based on the voluntary commitment of individuals and groups to make available their time and share their resources and skills in the interest of those less advantaged; calls for a concerted promotional and information campaign on behalf of the Year at the national, regional and international levels, with the strong participation of the mass media.
