Summary:

Reform at the United Nations, according to the Secretary-General, means embracing fundamental measures to strengthen the organization and its efficiency. Some of these measures, including greater accountability and budget restraint, have been demanded by member states. Other measures include initiatives announced by the Secretary-General in 1997. This testimony examines U.N. efforts to (1) unify and focus its organizational structure; (2) control its budget and institute new budget procedures; (3) improve oversight, program monitoring, and evaluation; and (4) improve its human resources management.
