Un Secretary General-Mr. Ki Moon Ban

The UN has an agreement with all other nation states to not get in conflict with each other and to settle differences in meetings to prevent another world war. It also makes them stronger as a

The United Nations fights for humanitarian issues through the use of peaceful dialogue between countries and leaders. The UN's powers of authorising peacekeeping, sanctions and force when absolutely necessary is given to it by the UN charter, an international treaty. They are limited by the fact that they cannot make their resolutions and policies the law, however the important conversations they start and ideas that are shared are influential upon the many powerful leaders who choose to listen.

The UN does this by working to prevent conflict; helping parties in conflict make peace; peacekeeping; and creating the conditions to allow peace to hold and flourish. These activities often overlap and should reinforce one another, to be effective. The UN Security Council has the primary responsibility for international peace and security. The General Assembly and the Secretary-General play major, important, and complementary roles, along with other UN offices and

A journey that lead to new revelations about myself and the world around me. Throughout the four days of the conference, there were seven committee sessions; I gave a total of three short, stutter-free speeches. Suffice to say, I was no award-winning delegate. Despite that, my knowledge of the world grew, and my knowledge of what I needed to work on to improve my skills as a delegate grew as well. Yes, I decided I wanted to go to another conference. Regardless of how scary and unpredictable Model UN could be for myself, I wanted to be able to stand confidently in front of the other 149 delegates, rallying them with my flawless plan to aid the syrian refugees or preventing nuclear war with North Korea. For years, I had locked myself into a small world filled only with comforts. Model UN helped me discover the importance of being aware of world affairs and developing problem solving skills that one day, I might use in the real

Canada’s crucial role in forming this organization helps not only the world but also increased Canada individual identity. This organization was supported by Lester B. Pearson which made him the chairman of the FAO. “In October 1945, Chairman of the First FAO Conference in Quebec City”(UN News Center). Due to Lester B. Pearson achieving greatly in his time during United Nations, he made Canada recognised in the world. People knew Lester B. Pearson as a Canadian and have made Canada proud. Lester B. Pearson worked his way up to becoming the president of the General Assembly of the United Nations. Due to Lester B. Pearson selfless deeds such as donating troops to United Nations, help fundraising for kids, he has given Canada the title of “Peacekeeper”.

The way a president or world leader can affect their respective countries or others with one decision or action is intriguing. They often have to make difficult decisions that can be often become controversial depending on the beliefs and views of the country’s citizens. Although the president has advisors, congress and the rest of the government; I find the amount of consideration and pressure that they put into decisions to be interesting. The code and conduct of how a world leader should act and make decisions is extremely important; with the lives of their citizens on the line, each moral and ethical decision needs to be made clearly and effectively. “Because the presidency of the United States entails great power, the decisions of individual

The goal of the United Nations, when formed was to “maintain international peace and security and commit to economic and social development. (Fomerand, Jacques)” As one

Since the end of the Cold War and the many failed attempts at peacekeeping, the United Nations has focused more on humanitarian efforts and defending human rights. After the Soviet Union fell, the mission of keeping peace between the

Thesis: The role of the United Nations has changed from being primarily an international peacekeeping force to primarily a humanitarian organization.

Over the last decade, the idea of the Security Council going under reform has caused much of a debate. Academics have been questioning whether the Security Council has been fulfilling its duties and obligations under Article 24 of the Charter of the United Nations . Another question, which arises frequently, is whether it is accountable and legitimate. The combinations of these effectively show whether the Security Council is fit for purpose in the 21st Century.

My contacts at the UN were abuzz, and several colleagues in other federal agencies were beginning to gear up for their participation in the summit. This seemed an ideal opportunity to leverage the agency’s efforts with

President Kennedy’s address to the United Nations General Assembly in September 1961 was given at a critical moment in the life of that body, one week after the death of UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjöld who had had been killed in a plane crash in the Congo. Some counseled the President to cancel his plans to address the opening of the General Assembly on September 25. But the President believed the UN had to have a future and he decided to speak forcefully on the real issues confronting the Assembly and the world: a stronger United Nations – disarmament and a nuclear test ban – cooperation on outer space and economic development – an end to colonialism – and recognition of the Communist threats to peace over Berlin and Southeast Asia.

“ Here is a task truly of, by and for the world, one that should rally nations. The nature of this task however, must be clearly understood; only then can suitable means for accomplishing it be formulated, only then can the role that the United Nations could and should play be appreciated” ( Wilcox/Haviland, 29). There are many international organizations that have been talked about throughout this semester. One of the most important ones is The United Nations. The United Nations was established October 24, 1945, and has since then been impacting the country. The United Nations main purpose according to the lecture notes is “ to provide a global additional structure through which states can sometimes settle conflicts with less reliance on the use of force , for whole purpose of the United Nations is to provide the globe a forum by which countries may settle disputes through this forum peacefully as opposed to relying on a force which has been the case historically” ( Kopalyan, Module 8). Thus meaning The United Nations was set up to handle problems peacefully rather than going to war to try and solve problems. “Powerful economic as well as political forces are at work to bring about a growing integration of the world community, and the United Nations and its related agencies are uniquely fitted to assist in the task” (Wilcox/Haviland,45). This was some of the reason that the United Nations was created.

First, the Theory of UN Collective Security briefly summarizes why the UN was established after WWII and how it has served the global community as a method to avoid war and conflict through collective security. Collective security is introduced as a principle that allows nation-states to be interconnected in a way that no only prevents war and conflict, but also provides methods that can be

This research is qualitative. When the research focuses on fields such as human behavior, strategy configuration, and policy assessment the qualitative approach is recognized as the appropriate scientific method (Tilaki and Hedayati, 2015;Polkinghorne, 1991). This study will examine the organizational structure of the United Nations in order to come to a conclusion as to a more efficient structure that could have been used during the
