Do Not Shutdown the UN
Knowing of your interest in global affairs and international cooperation, we wanted to make sure you were aware of a serious political crisis that is unfolding at the United Nations.
Strong differences of opinion about the direction of reform and governance at the UN threaten to collide with a rapidly approaching spending cap. Unresolved, these differences could paralyze the UN – paralyze diplomacy, paralyze operations, and paralyze the reform process. Some UN operations could even be curtailed or shutdown.
We need your help getting this message out. Below, please find a few simple things you can do to help get the word out to world leaders that it is time to resolve the crisis so that the UN can continue its life-saving work for security, development and humanitarian relief.
Send a message to world leaders!
