Millions and millions dollars are being given the somali refugees living in and around somalia every year
and yet the money goes back to the united nation high ranking officials based in nairobi.they are living the fullest life,driving extra expensive cars.
guess where the money comes from?
they collide with somali national NGO’S purpoting to be operating inside somalia in somali support secretariet in nairobi and the funds meant for develoment are shared equally among the seniors of the international organization and the local ngos leaders.
the internal displaced people are crying silent cry.

Being worked with NGO in somalia and still working i have started writting a book by the name “the silent
cry” and i will put my life on the line because i know more information pertainning about the corrupt system hatched,planned and executed inside nairobi and somalia by UN officials and the unpatriot somali officials from diverse organizational backgroung operatiing the entire somali numbered thousands ngos.

I am researching for a high school class. How many people work at the UN in NYC? What is the operational budget for the UN building in NYC?
Thank you.

very interesting,
this website is good but, you should have short little interesting facts for the younger people who actually give a damn about the U.N. INSTEAD OF HAVING A PARAGRAPH OF A FACT ABOUT THE U.N, HAVE A SENTENCE.
and if you cant do that MAKE ANOTHER WEBSITE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!!!!! O.M.L – (OH MY LORD)

Here’s another interesting piece of trivia. France is a permanent member of the all powerful Security Council, yet is only the 20th most populous nation. India is the 2nd most populous nation, yet has no such position. Reform anyone?

As a graphic designer, I’m loving all the various logos for the different departments. I did not know these existed. Talk about brand cohesiveness!

Neatorama has always had long lists on its front page – that’s because I hate clicking but don’t mind scrolling

yes, valerie, the UN is anti-american, because they sometimes dont further our interest.
then i suppose, you know of better ways how to solve global crises, wars, famine, etc.?
why, of course you do: it’s always easier to send the marines!

Would be nice if the USA would just tell the UN to go find offices in Europe and stop being responsible for so much of the cost of what they do, which is little. The UN is a joke now. And very anti-American and totally anti-Israel. Let them go off and be that on their own dime.

probably right after someone posts “the UN does nothing about the Rwanda and Srebrenica genocides”. Oh, that’s right, that already happened. my apologies.

The US is more than ten years in arrears in it’s payments.

Still likes to start wars via the UN though.

When will someone post a “The UN and the Jews are going to invade Missouri” style lunacy.

The lion share? I never knew there was a “lion share”. The term is “lion’s share”, meaning “the biggest or greatest part.”
