Richard Gowan, Program Director at the International Crisis Group, publishes an analysis in Foreign Affairs arguing the next UN Secretary-General should prioritize crisis prevention, conflict resolution, and humanitarian aid while shedding time-consuming diplomatic processes and inefficient bureaucracies.

“A UN that jettisons time-consuming diplomatic processes and inefficient bureaucracies for a few core functions may disappoint ardent advocates of global governance. But it also may be the only version of the organization still viable in an era of great-power competition and austerity.”
