Meet the Women Who Could Become UN’s New Secretary General (photos)

2 Min Read

The United Nations is going to have a new Secretary General very soon. The Incumbent, Ban Ki-Moon, will be stepping down at the end of the year. Therefore the search for a new Secretary General has begun in earnest.

The selection process this time is being said to be more transparent as member nations will have a say in who gets picked and have a chance to question them on policies and so on.

With the decision on a new secretary General still up in the air, a group of at least 56 countries, led by Colombia, and several civil society groups want the UN’s first female secretary-general since its creation at the end of World War Two.

The Security council will likely hold its first “straw poll” – a sort of informal vote – behind closed doors in July and aims to have a decision by September so the General Assembly can elect the next UN chief in October.

Half of the candidates nominated so far are women: UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova of Bulgaria; former Croatian Foreign Minister Vesna Pusic; Moldova’s former Foreign Minister Natalia Gherman; and former New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark, who heads the UN Development Programme.

You can check them out below.
