🇺🇳 Great segment by Felippe Coaglio for Globo explaining the stakes of #UN funding and its #financialcrisis.
I was glad to contribute: without predictable resources, even the most imperative #mandates are at risk.

“We live in a world where global problems are so crucial to humanity’s survival that, if the UN didn’t exist, we would have to invent it.”
💡 In my first piece with #NYUCIC, I unpack the arcane #UN80 reform process.
The piece shows what’s really at stake and where political traction is possible. Ten recommendations point to how member states can steer #UNReform with real impact.

Honoring the memory of Maltese journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia, assassinated in 2017, the conference emphasized the need to #regulate online platforms to create an information space that fosters public debate and informs decision-making.
On Nov. 22, Malta as chair of the #OSCE organized the Conference on #Media Freedom in the OSCE to address the role of free and independent media in the current digital landscape, the multiple challenges it faces, and their implications for #democracy and #security.

A very interesting and thorough analysis into right-wing playbook and how to fight back. While not the easiest way forward, it brings a perspective for democracy defenders and concerned citizens against the trap of populism
