Today, we proudly launch the Digital Handbook on the role of the #UNGA in matters of international peace and security. A concise, user-friendly resource cataloging decades of bold action by the General Assembly. As conflicts rise, the global community looks to the UN for leadership—and this Handbook is a step forward in that mission.

When it comes to P&S, what has the UN General Assembly’s past 78 years looked like? When/how has it stepped in when the SC was unwilling or unable to?Reviewing the #UNGA record on #accountability made me pause on why I didn’t pick law back in the day👀Freshly published Handbook⬇️
With greater geopolitical divisions and a frozen #SecurityCouncil, what can the #GeneralAssembly do on peace and security issues?  A new Handbook produced by UNU-CPR for the #78thsession takes stock of past practices to identify future directions: unu.edu/cpr/report/assembly-…

3 pieces of advice great mentors have taught me about being a young(ish) woman in this field: 1. Get yourself in the room. 2. Once there, shatter expectations. Every. Time. 3. Turn your critics into sources. 4. Dress like you might meet the president. Because you might.
