Honored to convene the #ACT group at the🇨🇭Mission today.
Together with @SCRtweets, we looked back on an ACT-ive year & prepared for 2024, always striving for more Accountability, Coherence & Transparency.
We could not put it better than @LandgrenKarin: “ACT is fired up”!

💡 In light of @antonioguterres invocation of Article 99 of the UN Charter earlier today, please see @SCRtweets In Hindsight (August 2019) on the matter: bit.ly/4a5FQNo

It is easy to put the blame on #veto powers of the permanent members, but this provision is the condition for implementation of #UNSC
Starting from scratch would lead to a "weaker product", permanent members would not accept provisions that would lessen their security.

Gran charla en la voz de los Representantes Permanentes de México e Irlanda ante @UN, sobre las aportaciones conjuntas a la agenda “Mujeres, Paz y Seguridad”, en el Consejo de Seguridad (2021-2022). Agradecemos a ponentes y público su acompañamiento en este esfuerzo informativo👏🏼
It’s “unacceptable” to ban Afghan women working for the UN and NGOs. Then what? #WPS thenewhumanitarian.org/news/…
…also thanks @LiechtensteinUN !
Launch of @SCRtweets’ new research report, #SecurityCouncil Working Methods in Hard Times—how the Council worked under pressures of #COVID-19 and #Ukraine. Thanks #ACTgroup and @swiss_un!
Apparently the first-ever “open house” discussion of #SecurityCouncil reform. Well done #IGN co-chairs @AustriaUN and @KuwaitMissionUN! @SCRtweets
Huge turn out to discuss #SecurityCouncil reform with some leading UN thinkers - @SCProcedure, @raad_zeid of @ipinst, @LandgrenKarin, @RichardGowan1 & Prof Jennifer Trahan of @NYUSPS.
Innovative, important & hopefully impactful approach - 🙏🙏🙏 @AustriaUN & @KuwaitMissionUN!

As @SCRtweets likes to point out, #SecurityCouncil working methods are not boring!
Today at #UNHQ we mark a birthday - the accountability, coherence & transparency group is1️⃣0️⃣years old.
This sounds technical but it is worth celebrating that this group of states works together to hold the #SecurityCouncil🇺🇳to account, & encourage it to be open about its work.
