Date of entry in UNESCO: January 2009
Having worked in a sister agency with a strong staff association representing the interests and defending rights of all categories of personnel, I was taken aback upon learning that UNESCO had two staff unions. As an active member of UNICEF’s staff association and in consideration of the challenging times our organization is currently facing, my principal engagement with the STU council would be to work with its members and UNESCO staff to promote the idea of a single consolidated and unified staff union representing all categories of staff and empowered to protect our rights!
Elected on 30 March 2012 by the STU members for two years (April 2012 – March 2014).
