Press Conference by Guy Ryder, the Under-Secretary-General for Policy on the updates on UN80. The Chair of the UN80 Task Force, Guy Ryder, today (1 Jul) said, the “really substantive” and “policy-focused” part of the UN 80 initiative, will be the mandate implementation review, which will look into nearly 4,000 mandate documents underpinning the UN Secretariat’s work. Briefing correspondents in New York on updates on the UN80 Initiative, Ryder said, “we have a very heavy corpus, stock of mandates in the form of resolutions and decisions from previous years and decades, which it makes sense for us to subject to detailed scrutiny, not least because they result in a very heavy load of meetings, of reports being produced, make demands both of the Secretariat and of Member States, which merits looking at with a view to improving the way that we organize our work.” The Under-Secretary-General for Policy said, “if you have a look at the, the organigram of the UN system, you do find quite a baroque architecture. There's a lot of entities. They've grown over the years in an accretional, in an incremental way. Structures are never easy to change once they're in place, but it does seem sensible to subject this architecture to detailed scrutiny.” He said the UN 80 initiative “is the United Nations and the Secretary-General responding to the totality of our circumstances, political circumstances, financial circumstances certainly, but also, I think, circumstances in which the effectiveness of multilateralism is up for scrutiny.” Ryder said, “the idea is to bring the United Nations out of this process, in these rather turbulent times, in better shape, stronger in a position to confront the challenges of today and tomorrow more effectively,” adding that in the end, “this will be the measure of the success of the initiative, able to have greater impact for the people, eventually. He said, “there are some Member States, particularly those who I think invest and contribute substantially to the system, who are encouraging the Secretary-General to boldness and ambition. They want to see this process bring significant change and improvement in the system. But I think it's fair to say as well that there is another body of opinion amongst Members who urge a certain degree of caution.” Ryder said, “we recognize that we have a difficult task of untangling the undergrowth of decisions and resolutions and mechanisms that we put in place to implement them,” and noted that “a similar review undertaken 20 years ago ran rather quickly into the sand. It did not produce the results that were hopeful and expected at that time.” He said he hoped this time around, “we can avoid some of the pitfalls.” The UN80 Chair said, “it's quite clear that we can reach the targets that have been set, but I think what is important in the process of review that the Secretary- General is now engaging in, is that it will not result in a 20 percent - can I use a phrase? - haircut across every department. It is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Rather, the Secretary- General is reviewing the inputs. He will make his determinations on where he believes certain services, certain activities, need to be - the word I could use is protected or not subject to the full rigor of a 20 percent cuts. Those where a greater effort might be called for.” He said, “what we're not trying to do is pick off one mandate, because it's expensive or in view of its resource implications. We are trying to have a more methodical, systemic review of mandates as a whole. The corpus of mandates, identify where duplications and redundancies may exist, where we can, approach implementation in a more rational, streamlined way and produce the types of proposals that we hope Member States will give favourable consideration to.” The UN80 Task Force will present its proposals to the Secretary-General, who has already indicated the first areas where outcomes are expected. A working group on efficiencies in the UN Secretariat, led by Under-Secretary-General Catherine Pollard, delivered initial proposals at the end of June, and a report on the mandate implementation review will follow at the end of July. This work under the first two workstreams will help inform broader thinking around structural changes and programme realignment across the UN system. Proposals under the third workstream will be put forward to Member States in the coming months and into next year, and eventually, Member States will decide how to act on the findings.

Noon Briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. --------------------------------- Highlights: Secretary-General / Financing for Development Deputy Secretary-General Occupied Palestinian Territory Syria Humanitarian Syria Sudan Sudan Humanitarian Democratic Republic of the Congo Haiti Briefing --------------------------------- SECRETARY-GENERAL/ FINANCING FOR DEVELOPMENT This morning, in Sevilla, Spain, the Secretary-General had a closed meeting with the Heads of the Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs). He then had a bilateral meeting with Juan Manuel Moreno Bonilla, President of the regional government of Andalusia and the First Vice-President of the European Committee of the Regions. The Secretary-General left Sevilla in the afternoon. We expect to announce his next travel in the coming days. DEPUTY SECRETARY-GENERAL The Deputy Secretary-General, Amina Mohammed, was also present at the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development (FFD4) in Sevilla, where she delivered remarks at the High-Level session of the International Business Forum. She called for a shift from international assistance to investments in sustainable development and underscored the private sector’s role in delivering impact at scale. She also participated in a G20-Spain high-level special event on debt sustainability in developing countries alongside Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, and she highlighted the need to break the cycle of debt and welcomed the growing attention from policymakers. This evening, she will travel to Vienna to address the 68th session of the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, organized by the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA). During her time, there she will meet with Member States, senior government officials and the UN system. She will then return to Seville on Thursday for the closing of FFD4. OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY Turning to the situation in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli military operations have further intensified in northern Gaza since the issuance of the displacement order on Sunday by the Israeli authorities. In the time since that directive was announced, our partners on the ground say that at least 1,500 families have been displaced from North Gaza, as well as eastern parts of Gaza governorate, towards the central and western parts of Gaza governorate. Over the past 48 hours, five school buildings sheltering displaced families in North Gaza were reportedly hit, with deaths and injuries reported. Initial assessments by partners indicate that many families who fled from the schools that were hit have returned to North Gaza, largely due to the lack of alternatives and limited shelter space elsewhere. Healthcare also continues to come under attack. The World Health Organization says that in central Gaza yesterday, a tent sheltering displaced people in the courtyard of Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al Balah was reportedly hit, injuring five people. The agency added that the hospital’s internal medicine department also sustained some damage, and its oxygen supply line was affected. Since October 2023, WHO has documented 734 attacks on healthcare in Gaza. WHO reiterated its call for the protection of civilians and healthcare facilities. OCHA reiterates that under international humanitarian law, civilians and civilian infrastructure must be protected, not targeted. Regarding aid operations on the ground, OCHA tells us that movement restrictions remain a major challenge, preventing partners from predictably and sustainably providing critical services and assistance.

Exiled Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama has confirmed that he will have a successor after his death, ending years of uncertainty. According to Tibetan tradition, Dalai Lamas are "reincarnated" after they die. The current Dalai Lama's exile from Tibet after China annexed it decades ago has made succession a highly contentious issue. China's government responded by saying it alone would choose the Dalai Lama's successor, which must be "approved by the central government". It regards the Dalai Lama as a separatist with no right to represent Tibetans. Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/1rbfUog For more news, analysis and features visit: www.bbc.com/news #DalaiLama #BBCNews

Serbian police have begun removing street blockades in Belgrade after crowds used metal fences and garbage containers to barricade roads on Sunday evening. Their anger was fuelled by the arrest of anti-government protesters who clashed with police at a massive rally over the weekend. Footage shared online appears to show police cars driving at high speed through a blockade on one street in the capital, causing bystanders to flee in panic. Demonstrations, mainly led by university students, have persisted for eight months. They were initially sparked by the fatal collapse of a train station roof in Novi Sad last November, which killed 16 people.

Play Video: Serbian Protesters Clash With Police in HUGE Anti-Government Protest

This was what the streets of Serbia’s capital, Belgrade, looked like on Saturday, as protestors clashed with riot police as they dissented against the government. Here's what we know so far: On Saturday, around 140,000 protestors gathered as part of one of the largest of recent student-led demonstrations against the populist government. The demonstrations centered around demanding an early election and an end to President Aleksander Vucic’s 12 year rule. His second term is currently due to end in 2027, when parliamentary elections have been scheduled. Ahead of the protest, organizers issued an ultimatum for Vucic to announce elections, which he declined. The key details: Protestors clashed with police who fired tear gas and detained Several dozens of protestors. At least six officers were also reported injured. This comes after 5 people were detained on Friday, who according to a statement from Serbia’s Higher Court, were accused of plotting to overthrow the government. Here's the context: The protests on Saturday come after almost 8 months of persistent dissent led by university students. Demonstrations started last December, following the deaths of 16 people on the 1st of November, in the collapse of Novi Sad railway station’s roof - which protestors blamed on corruption and negligence in state infrastructure projects. The backlash to the incident forced the former Prime Minister, Milos Vucevic, to resign earlier this year, but President Aleksander Vucic still remains in power. The reaction: As the protest ended, organizers played a statement to the crowd, urging Serbians to "take freedom into your own hands". They claimed that “The authorities had all the mechanisms and all the time to meet the demands and prevent an escalation” but “Instead, they chose violence and repression against the citizens. Any radicalisation of the situation is their responsibility.” President Vucic accused the protestors of wanting to topple Serbia, and he hit back at them today in a News conference, claiming that ”Serbia won. You cannot destroy Serbia with violence as some wanted. Serbia has not and Serbia will never stop.” He also praised the Serbian police force for their professionalism.
