List of International Organizations (622 words)
This list does not determine whether an entity is an international organization for the purpose of other statutes or regulations.
Because the UN qualifies as an international organization in which the United States Government participates within the meaning of Public Law 89-554 as amended, organs and special programs of the UN usually also qualify under the statute as well.
Although it qualifies as an international organization, assignments of Federal personnel are coordinated by the Department of State and are made under statutory authority other than Public Law 85-795.
