Titre : Renewing the United Nations system Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Erskine Childers, Auteur ; Brian Urquhart, Auteur Editeur : Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation Année de publication : 1994 Collection : Development Dialogue num. 1-4 Importance : 213 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Droits de l'homme Tags : ONU Index. décimale : 08.01 Droits humains Résumé : Our object in this study is to analyse the present state of the UN ’system’ and to suggest changes and reforms which might allow it to function in a more systematic and effective manner. This study is the fourth in a sequence analysing salient problems in the working of the United Nations system and recommending how to equip it better to meet the enormous challenges of a new era. Each study has benefited from the sponsorship and consistent encouragement of the Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation (Uppsala, Sweden) and the Ford Foundation (New York, USA). The work began in 1989-1990 with issues of leadership: how governments discharge their responsibilities in the selection and appointment of the Secretary-General and other executive heads in the system, and how these procedures could be improved.’ A representative group of Ambassadors to the United Nations met at the Ford Foundation to discuss that paper, leading to a number of further informal meetings in 1990-1991. We had already outlined some problems of organization in the original leadership paper. In 1991, as interest grew in reorganizing the Secretariat of the United Nations, the group of ambassadors asked for what became the second paper, containing recommendations for such reorganization?

Titre : Towards a More Effective United Nations : Two Studies Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Erskine Childers, Auteur ; Brian Urquhart, Auteur Editeur : Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation Année de publication : 1991 Collection : Development Dialogue num. 1-2 Importance : 96 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Aide au développement Tags : ONU Index. décimale : 08.01 Droits humains Résumé : As readers of Development Dialogue are well aware, the activities of the Dag Hammarskjold Foundation are guided by the principles and ideas formulated in the 1975 Dag Hammarskjold Report on Development and International Cooperation, What Now: AnotherDevelopment. Despite the turbulent changes that have taken place since then, the Foundation has seen no reason to yield to ‘current realities’ and give up the normative view that development should be need-oriented, endogenous, self-reliant, ecologically sound, and based on structural transformations.
Nor has there been any reason to ignore the larger implications of these principles for multilateral development. The 1975 Dag Hammarskjold Report noted that ‘the United Nations system, as the only universal system available, should be reorganized and moulded into an effective instrument geared to the objectives of another development and renewed international cooperation’. Existing structures would have to be drastically modified to ensure functional and trans-sectoral coherence, and the UN Secretariat reorganized to provide more effective leadership of their activities. In various issues of Development Dialogue published after What Now, special attention has been given to the work of the multilateral institutions, and to the role that not only the first system, governments, but also the second system, business, and in particular the third system, the people and their associations, should play in this context.En ligne : https://www.daghammarskjold.se/publication/towards-effective-united-nations-two- [...] Towards a More Effective United Nations : Two Studies [texte imprimé] / Erskine Childers, Auteur ; Brian Urquhart, Auteur . - [S.l.] : Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation, 1991 . - 96 p. - (Development Dialogue; 1-2) .
