The world is changing, and with it the demands on the United Nations. The UN provides a unique platform for international action. It offers unparalleled legitimacy for global engagement, owing to its universal membership; its inclusive decision-making processes; its unequalled reach; and its ability to provide critical services that are essential to international peace, security, stability and prosperity.
Process of renewal
The United Nations is engaged in a continuous process of change and reform to strengthen its ability to meet new demands and deliver its vital services in the most effective and efficient ways. This means:
- Constant emphasis on transparency, accountability, integrity, efficiency and flexibility.
- Creating an environment in which improvement is expected and innovation is welcomed.
These efforts are aimed at delivering results to those most in need, doing more with what we have and strengthening accountability.
