Weekly Top 10 List: Top 10 Things the UN Does Well
Posted by Suzanne Nossel
This will take a look at the top 10 things the U.S. does well or, in a few cases, not quite "well" but at least better than any other organization out there. The approach of D-Day on John Bolton makes this as good a time as any to remind ourselves why the UN matters and some of the ways that we count on it.
1. Food Aid. This is an easy one. The UN's World Food Programme is among the most effective multilateral bodies bar none. They feed 104 million people a year in 80 countries. They feed people in war zones, natural disaster situations, health emergencies, and just plain poor countries. They've also got brilliant and creative people like Richard Wilcox and Tony Banbury (both former colleagues) on staff who are constantly trying to up the organization's game, Richard by building a futures market for natural disasters and Banbury by making sure the world delivers on its promise to tsunami victims.
2. Aid to Refugees. Also easy, because the UN High Commissioner on Refugees is another star in the UN galaxy. There were 17 million asylum-seekers, refugees and the like in 2004 who got help from UNHCR. They both help refugees directly and work to ensure that governments meet their responsibilities to these displacees. The organization got one of its first ever major bouts of bad press in February because of allegations of sexual harassment against its head, Ruud Lubbers, a former Prime Minister of the Netherlands, who was forced to resign. But nothing Lubbers did undercuts the efficacy or value of UNHCR's work.
3. Protecting Children. Although I still remember the days of holding back my pennies from their contribution boxes on Halloween because the organization was thought to be one-sidedly pro-Palestinian, UNICEF has built a reputation as an advocacy and service powerhouse, with programs ranging from immunizations to AIDS prevention to education and protection against exploitation.
4. Peacekeeping. The UN has 16 active peacekeeping missions right now, in places like Sierra Leone, Kosovo, Lebanon, Liberia and Burundi. Make no mistake: in most of those places if the UN weren't there, no one else but the marauders would be and the peace or relative peace being kept would have disintegrated long ago. The history of UN peacekeeping is checkered for at least 2 reasons: a) vague mandates and inadequate resources decreed by the countries on the UN Security Council and b) poor planning, management and capabilities. On the latter front (the only front which the UN qua UN can do anything about), the organization has made real progress based on a 2000 reform report. While holes still exist, a most-improved-player award is in order here.
5. Intervenor of Last Resort. In peacekeeping but also more broadly, the UN gets involved in messes when noone else will. The meltdowns in Congo and Liberia are prime examples. When the U.S. and Europe have no interest in getting involved, and there's no regional player with the will and capabilities, the choice is often letting slaughter and mayhem continue untrammeled, or throwing the problem to the UN. The UN deserves credit for taking on these quagmires.
6. Running Elections. The UN has quietly built an impressive capacity to run elections under tough circumstances. This was put to the test in Iraq where, due to security concerns, the organization was able to deploy only a small fraction of the staff it thought it needed, yet still managed to pull off January's historic polling. The organization has also managed successful first-ever polls in places like East Timor and Afghanistan. This Spring it was revealed that the electoral assistance division is mired in a host of management problems. But still, they seem to get the job done.
7. Reproductive Health and Population Management. The UN has built a great specialty in mother and childhood health, family planning, and the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases. The UN Population Fund is widely respected, and is credited with helping to drastically reduce infant and maternal mortality in more than 100 countries. Unfortunately due to its global gag rule designed to prevent health care workers from even talking about abortion, the Bush Administration has deprived UNFPA of funds needed for this vital work.
8. War Crimes Prosecution. This is a fairly new line of business for the UN. The Tribunals it has set up for the former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda have had their share of delays and management problems but, all in all, they are respected, have developed important case law on genocide and human rights and have provided a measure of justice that is taken very seriously by the people of affected regions. The UN is still experimenting with new judicial models for places like Sierra Leone and Cambodia. The UN deserves credit for the progress it is making in this area, another arena in which its hard to imagine any other country or body taking the lead to the same degree.
9. Fighting AIDS. The UN is the leader when it comes to the global battle against HIV/AIDS. Between the World Health Organization, UNAIDS, and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria the UN is at the heart of every aspect of dealing with the epidemic, from heightening awareness to raising funds to making sure appropriate programs for prevention and treatment are implemented. The UN has wisely recognized that the organization itself cannot shoulder this one alone, and has set up the Fund and other mechanisms aimed at drawing governments, other multilaterals, NGOs and corporations into the fight.
10. Bringing invisible issues to the fore. Were it not for the UN, an awful lot of suffering around the world would go even less noticed and addressed than it does today. Landmine victims, Marburg fever and cholera sufferers, child soldiers, modern-day slaves, lepers and thousands of other populations beleagured by one or another either visible or obscure plight have a place to turn at the UN.
None of this is to say that the UN does anything perfectly, or that there isn't a pressing need for reform. Its hard to overlook the common theme that emerges above involving good organizations and functions that are nonetheless beset by serious and often embarrassing management shortcomings. While many of the UN's problems can be blamed on its Member States, poor oversight and lousy personnel practices are the responsibility of the UN Secretariat and Kofi Annan. Its a good illustration of how the UN's weaknesses get in the way of people recognizing the body's many strengths.
As you know, I am guest-blogging this week on Dan Drezner. Check out that site for some items that ought to be on the UN's list of strengths, but aren't, and for my best assessment of who and what is to blame.

It continues to exist and is still a viable conduit of International, multlateral communication. As a contrary proof: consider world history after the demise of the League of Nations.

From the WFP website:
News Release
26 April 2005
QUICK U.S. RESPONSE ALLOWS WFP TO CANCEL RATION CUT IN DARFUR BUT FUNDING STILL CRITICAL
KHARTOUM – The United Nations World Food Programme announced today that thanks to a rapid donor response, the agency will not be forced to carry out expected ration cuts in May for close to two million people living in Sudan’s western region of Darfur. The reprieve follows WFP’s warning three weeks ago of impending ration cuts due to a lack of funds which remains a concern.
As a last resort due to severe under-funding, WFP had planned to halve the non-cereals part of the daily ration for general distributions in Darfur in May. However, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Food for Peace has stepped in and redirected to Sudan around 14,000 metric tons of non-cereals already on the high seas.
“We are extremely appreciative of the urgent efforts made by the United States to prevent ration cuts at such a critical period,” said Ramiro Lopes da Silva, WFP’s Representative and Country Director in Sudan. Even before this new donation, the United States has contributed 60 percent of the food and 50 percent of cash towards WFP’s emergency operation.

Three cheers for the United Nations (and three boos for Bolton). But don't minimize the need for fundamental reforms at the august international body. The UN has accomplished much despite a fundamental contradiction at its core: it membership does not match its mission. Although it is theoretically committed to peace, democracy, human rights and development, the UN's members included myriad warlike, undemocratic, human rights abusing backward states who cling to membership based on outdated notions of sovereignty. Time to seriously consider reconstituting the body by making democracy a requirement for membership (sorry China). If not that, at least support a democracy caucus within the UN or an alliance of democracies parallel to it to begin the organizational revolution.

I'm sorry, but this list infuriates me for what appears to me to be willful blindness.
Food Aid? Leaving aside the problems of dictators allocating such aid to cronies and related problems of food rotting in storage at docks, the question is why 80 countries and 100 million people persist year after year in requiring handouts. The aphorism about teaching a man to fish rather than giving a man to fish would seem appropriate. The biggest impact on famine in our lifetimes was made not via UN redistributionist handouts but by Nobel Winner Norman Borlaug for his work in the "Green Revolution" of India. (And Mexico, and other places where he, the Ford Charitable Foundation, and other United STATES (not UN) efforts were supported by local authorities.
Refugees? Tell it to the boat people of Vietnam who spent decades, bore children, and clung to hope in camps in Thailand and Singapore only to be SENT BACK, at last, to the tender "mercies" of the Communist gov't they'd fled. (John Kerry participated in "resolving" this lingering issue, by the way; one of his more tangible accomplishments in the US Senate.) For that matter the UN has made remarkable strides -- not -- in assuring the rights of Palenstinian refugees to resettle in the friendly climes of Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia ...
"UN Peacekeeping" has become synonomous with child rape and standing by watching genocide. "Reproductive Health" means less about reducting clitoralectomies and more about gender-selective abortions. "Prosecuting War Crimes" means Milosevic stays on trial for years, makes the judge and prosecutors look less competent than those at the OJ Simpson trial, and actually enhances his image among his violent racist fascist supporters. "Fighting AIDS" means diverting resources away from eradicating malaria and so mismanaging anti-polio programs that the disease has now mutated into a form that re-threatens the whole world.
I understand that the UN has outgrown the facility in New York City and is attempting to acquire a new larger more modern, more secure and more suitable complex. I wish them much success -- and that they will locate such a faciilty in Paris, where it may be properly appreciated.

Your #1 point: Food Aid.
Sorry to tell you, but FOOD AID is one of the main causes for hunger in Africa.
Kenya, which had been self-sufficient until the 1980s, now imports 80 percent of its food, while 80 percent of its exports are accounted for by agriculture. In 1992, European Union (EU) wheat was sold in Kenya for 39 percent cheaper than the price paid to European farmers by the EU. In 1993, it was 50 percent cheaper. Consequently, imports of EU grain rose and, in 1995, Kenyan wheat prices collapsed through oversupply, undermining local production and creating poverty.
…
Far from ending hunger and promoting the economic interests of small farmers, agricultural liberalization has created a global food system that is structured to suit the interests of the powerful, to the detriment of poor farmers around the world.

The very notion of Jackass in 3-D may induce a wave of hysterical blindness, to avoid seeing Steve-O's you-know-what in that way. But many directors, editors, and cinematographers agree with me about the shortcomings of 3-D. So do fake tag heuer many movie fake tag heuer lovers—even executives who feel stampeded by another Hollywood infatuation with a technology that was already pointless when their grandfathers played with stereoscopes. The heretics' case, point by tag heuer fake point:When tag heuer fakeyou look at a 2-D movie, it's already in 3-D as far as your mind is concerned. When you see Lawrence of Arabia growing from a speck as he rides toward you across the desert, are you thinking, Look fake cartie how slowly fake cartie he grows against the horizon or I wish this were 3D? Our minds use the principle of perspective to provide the third dimension. Adding one artificially can make the illusion less convincing.

It's etched and inked with a very nice rendition of the Blancpain Replica Watches which,as an engineer and pilot myself,has always been one of my favorite planes.The alarm is good,though not as loud as the 80dB Omega.Luminox managed this compromise while still maintaining 100m water resistance,though,which is a good tradeoff and a strong point in their favor.The face and dial are,in contrast to the Raptor just reviewed,quite sparse and understated.Stark white hands,minimal text and graphics,and a reverse LCD display; it all adds up to outstanding legibility.The sapphire crystal minimally domed with an inner camber and inner A/R coating also helps quite a bit.And,of course,at night the tritium tubes rock.Note,however,that the digital portion is not backlit,and therefore not useable in the dark.The Swiss Chanel Ceramic Watch has some really unusual features you might enjoy like the compass,and the "week of year" and tachymeter modes.I like that you can select a display mode that suits you: time,full date (day/date/year/month),seconds only (very clean),time,second or third timezone,alarm or countdown timer.It's an extremely functional Japanese Rolex Replica,and as with the Bedat & CO Replica Watches,the large curved segments are easy to read and use.The buttons and pushbutton crown are well-sized and spaced,and work fine even with gloves on; that's one advantage for the crown design.Case and packaging are quite good; it comes in a very nice travel pack with padding and cleaning cloth that you can actually use as opposed to something you store on a shelf or discard.It also has internal pockets to hold the manual and warranty card another thoughtful touch.The bracelet is good and fully PVD coated,including the inside bits of the clasp.It has snap closure,fliplock,four micro-adjustments,solid links with pins,and solid end links a good match for the Zenith Replica Watches,and with standard lugs on the case so you could try your own strap if you want.I suspect it would work well with a dark leather strap,as well.On the wrist,this is a fun Patek Philippe Replica to wear: substantial,but not massive,uniquely styled,and tremendously legible day or night.The sculpted bezel and profile mean that it's more cuff-friendly than you might expect which is one more thing to like about the design.List price on the Blackbird is $1,500,consistent with Luminox's recent push into higher-end Rolex Ladies Replica Watches.For a Tudor Replica Watches that compares well to the X-33,that seems like a reasonable price,especially given the discounts usually available,and how much easier the Luminox will be to find.If you like analog-digital Piaget Replica Watches as much as I do,this one is a clear winner: more waterproof than the X-33,tritium illumination,good alarm,tons of functions,cool inner bezel,cuff-friendly profile,and a clean,understated dial.Our thanks to Luminox USA for the review loan.By Paul Hubbard; For updates on content,follow Franck Muller Replica Report on Twitter.

If I speak in the Cheap Authentic NFL Jerseys tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all Official NFL Jerseys knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my USA Jerseys Shop body to the flames,but have not love, I gain nothing.Love is patient, NFL Jerseys love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it NHL Jerseys keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always MLB Jerseys hopes, always perseveres.Love never NHL Hockey Jerseys fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in MLB Baseball Jerseys part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappea. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a NBA Basketball Jerseys man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.And now these three remain: faith, hope and NFL Football Jerseys love. But the greatest of these is love.
