Summary[edit]

Description

Imagine a brand ambassador with no nationality, no race or gender, no carbon footprint, and who does not speak - yet can express approval, pleasure, surprise, joy, indeed just about every human emotion you can imagine. That’s exactly what the renowned French artist Yak created for the United Nations to help the Organization celebrate its 70th birthday year of 2015.

Elyx is the UN’s first digital ambassador, and this year he went on a virtual journey around the world in 70 days to shed light on the work of the United Nations in the field. UN agencies and other bodies were asked to get creative and show Elyx interacting with different areas of their work, and share the results via social media.

The result is a wonderful montage depicting the truly diverse and global efforts being undertaken by the UN family to improve the lives of people all over the world. You can track Elyx’s travels by visiting <a href="http://www.elyx70days.org/" rel="nofollow">www.elyx70days.org/</a>, and on these pages you can see where we took Elyx when he popped in to IMO.

And, along with UN Headquarters in New York, we also turned our headquarters building UN blue, too!
