The Flawed Design And Incompetence of UNML | Rahul Goswami | #sangamtalks #unesco #UNmultilateral
116UNDP, UNDAF, FAO, MDGs, MLDBs etc. These are a few of the organisations of the UN, holistically we call UNML. What significant influence do they have in various sectors, among national governments? When we dig deep and think rationally taking into account the global undertaking of UMNLs, there were concerns about the UNML promoting harmful practices and being perceived as a new model of colonization. Global financialization as the mock UN assembly among youth acts as an indoctrination that promotes the UN mode of thinking, highlighting the concerning influence of the UN system on education, and it became manyfold problematic, with the influence of China in UN and UNESCO activities, as well as the evolution of the UN's role in treaty-making and its interference with state laws. Furthermore, the massive structure of the UN and its affiliates, with the ambiguity of funding, and the incompetence of UN agencies in providing financial support is unsettling. Amidst these concerns, the UNML's apparent negligence of indigenous knowledge to tackle climate change and the rapid growth of FAO committees is also raising alarm.
