From a LinkedIn post by – United Nations wants to cut 6,900 jobs from its 35,000-person workforce. But here’s what the headlines aren’t telling you about the UN80 “reforms.” I’m deeply concerned about what’s happening with the UN80 Initiative It’s potentially dismantling decades of specialized expertise when the world needs it most.
The real story behind these efficiency measures: The proposed mergers of UNDP/UNOPS, UN Women/UNFPA, and others sound logical on paper. Eliminate duplication, reduce costs, streamline operations. But historical evidence tells a different story.
