Interview with Peter Launsky-Tieffenthal

From the creator

United Nations, New York - A few weeks ago, managers in the United Nations signed an agreement which included a system-wide action plan (SWAP) for gender equality and the empowerment of women. The agreement, along with the commitment of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and his top managers to carry the responsibility for the implementation of gender mainstreaming, helps set the tone at the top for improving performance and accountability across the entire Organization. Their collective signing reinforces the commitment of the Secretary-General and his senior leadership team to a culture of results, transparency and accountability. Maha Fayek met Peter Launsky-Tieffenthal, Under-Secretary-General for Communications and Public Information, who signed the compact. She asked him to further elaborate on its terms and "comprehensive goals".
