The Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) is the world organization of parliaments of sovereign States. It was established in 1889. The Union is the focal point for world-wide parliamentary dialogue and works for peace and co-operation among peoples and for the firm establishment of representative democracy. The IPU supports the efforts of the United Nations, whose objectives it shares, and works in close co-operation with it. It also co-operates with regional inter-parliamentary organizations, as well as with international intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations which are motivated by the same ideals. Over a hundred national parliaments are currently members of the IPU. The IPU is financed by its members out of public funds. The site of the Union's Headquarters is in Geneva, Switzerland. 3, record 1, English, - Inter%2DParliamentary%20Union
