UNRWA - United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees

A confidential internal report from the UN's Palestinian refugee agency's ethics office has detailed alleged abuses of authority among the organisation's senior management team.

With input from dozens of current and former staff, the 10-page document cites "credible and corroborated reports" that members of an "inner circle" at the top of UNRWA have engaged in "abuses of authority for personal gain, to suppress legitimate dissent and to otherwise achieve their personal objectives".

The ethics report claims that members of the inner circle "have engaged in misconduct, nepotism, retaliation ... and other abuses of authority".

It alleges that, since 2015, they have steadily consolidated power, leading to "management decline", and that the situation escalated markedly from the beginning of 2018.

 

Read it full, it's totally disgusting, the use of the suffering of the Palestinians for their own gain is horrible, it's very serious and should make us question the UN.

 

So sploosh your juice all over me you Riverboy

Not the UN! They're like the police of governments. Oh God, I hope they clean this out. If we can't trust the UN, who the hell can we trust???

Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊

I mean, the UN has had quite a few issues, just look at the issues with Peacekeepers, there's been some extremely tragic stuff happening there. But yeah, I get you, it feels like they're getting more corrupt by the day

I feel like all big organizations have issues. What I like about the UN is that they're supposed to be run by good-hearted people who want peace. Some bad ones can get in, though. Ugh, I hate this.
