UN - Issues in focus

Hi all, asking this question on someone else’s behalf.

Could you please list as many UN-related topics as you can think of that have been of significant importance between the 2010-2012 period? Issues like terrorism are always in focus but the question is about the recent UN concerns/proposals/directives etc in international affairs that one should be aware of.

It’s going to take forever to browse through all those newspapers and web pages from the last 2 years so it would help to compile a list of important topics in one thread.

Thanks!

I think the initiatives in Libya and now in Syria.

Womens rights are always on the agenda along with human rights.
