Campaign to elect a woman UN Secretary-General
The World Human Dimension wholeheartedly supports a campaign to elect a woman
as a next UN Secretary-General.
We
know that there is a process on the way to compile a list of outstanding women
from around the world with the purpose of placing their bios on the website www.womansg.org.
Due to our long-lasting
relationship with the UN Secretariat, our organization has been requested by the campaigners for a woman as a Secretary-General to provide a name of a russian candidate who in our view would be
suitable for that job.
After
analyzing of wide spectrum of women prominent in business, politics and humanitarian
field, we suggested Elizaveta Glinka (Dr. Lisa) whom with WHD has been in a long and fruitful
association on a number of issues. Her work has been outstanding in the humanitarian
field and she has been in charge of a number of international non-governmental organizations engaged in assisting people in troubled areas of
the world. And we also provided verified data about Dr. Lisa as
requested.
We have received a positive feedback from Dr. Jean Krasno, a Distinguished Fellow at International Security Studies, Yale University where she has taught courses on the United Nations and UN peacekeeping.
