The document summarizes key ideas and contributions of the United Nations over its history. It discusses nine UN ideas that have changed the world, including human rights, gender equality, development goals, and environmental sustainability. It notes both successes, such as establishing core human rights, and failures, such as a weak response to HIV/AIDS. The UN's ideas have influenced global governance through changing perceptions, setting agendas, and becoming embedded in institutions. Challenges for the future include strengthening global cooperation and addressing issues like inequality and climate change.

Ipsos MORI/Economist Issues Index - September 2015Ipsos UK
The September Economist/Ipsos MORI issues index shows that over half (56%) of the public mention immigration as among the most important issues facing Britain. For two fifths (40%) it is the single most important issue facing the country. This is an increase of 6 percentage points since August, and an increase of 14 percentage points since July.
Healthcare is undergoing a transformation. Consumers want to make informed choices and take control of their lives, and pharma companies must be ready to meet their needs. This means building a new healthcare ecosystem that places the patient at its center, with the “person” fully engaged in his or her own healthcare. But with this move to person-centric healthcare, payers and providers are no longer the main decision makers.
So what does this mean for today’s marketers?
In this exclusive Social On Us webinar we discuss:
- Where marketing is failing to address healthcare concerns
- How “big data” is a change-driver for a new healthcare ecosystem
- New opportunities for predictive and preventative medical intervention
- Impact of digital healthcare on patient privacy

Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

1. UN Ideas That Changed
the World
Sir Richard Jolly
UN SUMMER ACADEMY
2. UN Ideas -
four main points
1. Ideas are possibly the UN’s most important
contributions
2. The nine UN ideas that changed the World
3 Successes and Failures in putting them into action
4. Future challenges and conclusions for UN Staff
3. Lourdes Arizpe
“Someone once said that the United Nations is a
dream managed by bureaucrats. I would correct
that by saying that it has become a bureaucracy
managed by dreamers.
Certainly you have to be a dreamer to work in the
United Nations with conviction. It is only if you
have this sense of mission that you can withstand
the constant battering by governments who are
afraid that the United Nations will become a world
government…
So in the end, someone who works in the United
Nations has to be a magician of ideas, because
working for the United Nations is like working for
a government in which all the political parties are
in power at the same time.”

1980: Lawrence R. Klein
1984: Richard Stone
1998: Amartya Sen
Lawrence R. Klein
Amartya Sen
14. The UN economic ideas have often differed from those of
the World Bank and the IMF – but the Bretton Woods
Institutions have received most donor support
Fairer International Economic Relations –
priorities for trade, aid and TNCs
National Development strategies –directed to
accelerated national development
Development Goals –mostly focused on human
advance, recently towards the MDGs
Social Development priorities–a key component of
development from the UN’s earliest years
15. UN goals
“a mixed record but more achievement than generally realized”
1950s Eradicating Malaria
1960-1980 UPE (Universal Primary Education)
1961-1970 (First) Development Decade
–accelerating economic growth

18. A Balance Sheet of the UN’s
Contributions
The UN has led the way with many fundamental ideas,
more than is often realized – notably in statistics, setting
global goals, development thinking, environment,
supporting equitable economic relations, peace and
security, human rights and human development
The UN has often been ahead of the World Bank and the
IMF – though these have received most donor support
and most finance
Over the long run, the UN shows considerable impact
Ideas are among the UN’s most important contributions
19. Negatives on the UN Balance Sheet
Late reaction to the Washington Consensus
Weak response to the special needs of the least
developed countries
Too little done to introduce cultural aspects into
the development equation
Tardy and weak reaction to HIV/AIDS
Inadequate attention to inequalities of income
and wealth, nationally & internationally
20. UN Ideas gain global
influence in four ways
Changing the way issues are perceived
Redefining state and non-state interests and
goals, thereby setting agendas for action
Mobilizing coalitions to press for action
Becoming embedded in institutions, which
have responsibilities for oversight,
implementation and monitoring

24. Global challenges for the UN’s
future
1 Strengthen global governance in a multi-polar
world with strengthened regionalism
2 Tackle climate change and sustainability
3 Diminish national and global inequalities
4 Pursue sustainable holistic development
5 Build international values of humanity and
solidarity and bridge divides of culture and
identities
25. Priorities for recovering from the crisis
(drawn from the Stiglitz Report to the UN GA, 2009)
Immediate
1 National and regional actions to tackle the three scourges
= Unemployment, inequalities & environmental sustainability
2 Global and regional coordination of actions
3 Make finance and the banks the servant not the master
Over the medium and longer run
1 Reform governance in the IMF and World Bank, with double majority voting
2 Restore and strengthen the position of the UN in economic governance
Embark on more fundamental changes
3 A global reserve system
4 Mechanisms to diminish causes of global instability
5 Legal and economic modalities for Sovereign Debt default and restructuring
6 An international Court for Debt Restructuring
26. Conclusions for UN Staff
Never underestimate the power of UN ideas
Apply and support UN ideas at country level
• National Human Development Reports
• Reports on Human Security
• Catalytic support for implementation
• Monitoring nationally and regionally
• Support analysis of national interests in global actions
Collaborate around common goals and ideas
Goals and ideas are a constructive alternative to bureaucracy
Partner with the Bank and the Fund but recognize the power
of UN ideas
27. Sergio Vieira de Mello
“Unless we aim for the
seemingly unattainable, we
risk settling for mediocrity.”
28. Kofi Annan
“Applaud us when we prevail.
Correct us when we fail. But
above all, do not let this
indispensable, irreplaceable
institution wither, languish or
perish…”
