Beskrivning

The noble and important core aims of the United Nations to protect human rights and establish peace and security for people and states in the world can only be achieved if the UN staff can be guaranteed good working conditions and be heard when they see the need to alarm about wrongdoings inside the UN itself. This book documents how the protection of whistleblowers, in many cases, is a myth for many staff members who have felt the need to blow the whistle.

It is a gripping read and tribute to the courage in the face of retaliation of the UN’s front-line human rights defenders – its staff. The treatment of UN Whistleblowers is a stain on our shared humanity.

The UN inspectors (JIU) report that “whistleblowers alone account for the uncovering of more fraud and corruption [within the U.N. system] than all other measures of fraud detection combined” and recommend stronger measures to protect them.
