UN City in Copenhagen

Script error: No such module "Check for conflicting parameters".

The UN City (Danish: FN Byen) is located in Copenhagen, and consists of two campuses that combined house 11 United Nations agencies. The plans for a UN City in Copenhagen were born in 2002, and the location at Marmormolen was selected in 2005. Campus 1 on Marmormolen currently accommodates staff members from all 11 agencies. Campus 2, located by the container port, constitutes UNICEF's new state of the art high bay warehouse and is currently considered[by whom?] to be the world's largest non-food humanitarian warehouse. UN City currently accommodates 2000 employees[3] from 104 different countries, of which 1,700 employees are located in campus 1, making it the sixth largest UN campus measured by the number of staff.[4][5] The building was designed by Danish architecture firm 3XN,[6] totals 45,000 m2 office space and 7,000 m2 basement and was inaugurated on the 4th of July 2013 by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II of Denmark.[7] The building is built with a large focus on sustainability and environmental friendliness, and the calculated energy consumption for the building is less than 50 kWh/m2/year.[6] The building has been awarded with the European Commission's Green Building Award for New Buildings and LEED's Platinum-certificate.[4] The Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs[7] rents UN City to the UN through official development assistance funds.
