ONU – Riapertura del reclutamento in Italia
By admin | giugno 27, 2011
YPP – Young Professionals Programme Examination – Informazioni preliminari Le Nazioni Unite hanno notificato all’Italia la variazione relativa alle posizioni negli organi ONU attribuite su base geografica che, come noto, hanno comportato per lungo tempo una sovra-rappresentazione sul piano formale del nostro Paese.
Il ricalcolo della quota italiana ha portato alla media di 76 unità, al di sotto del ‘desirable range’ che si colloca tra 84 e 114. Tale circostanza apre al nostro Paese una nuova opportunità di accesso all’Organizzazione, il cui processo di reclutamento, di norma, avviene attraverso “vacancies” pubblicate sul portale http://careers.un.org .

The Nuclear Proliferation International History Project is a global network of institutions and individuals engaged in the study of international nuclear history through archival documents, oral history interviews and other empirical sources. Recognizing that today’s toughest nuclear challenges have roots in the past, NPIHP is transcending the East vs. West paradigm to work towards an integrated international history of nuclear weapons and their role in geo-politics. NPIHP’s research aims to fill in the blank and blurry pages of nuclear proliferation history in order to inform scholarship and public policy.
