It\u2019s not its inability to resolve global crises, such as the current conflicts in Gaza, Ukraine, Myanmar, and Syria. Rather, the source of the crisis is internal, as critical personnel, from the Secretary-General to program officers in various UN agencies, have failed to communicate the UN\u2019s increasingly complex mission to the public at large. While the problem extends across agencies and cuts across thematic areas, no one issue exemplifies the institution\u2019s catastrophic inability to communicate more than climate change.","thumbnail_url":"http:\/\/markscogan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/press_stake_out.jpg","thumbnail_width":1200,"thumbnail_height":695}
