Current global crises, such as geopolitical conflicts, climate change, and humanitarian disasters are profoundly testing the UN's existing mechanisms and its capacity to respond effectively. We sit down with Professor Francesco Mancini to discuss the UN's ability to adapt, reform and successfully address these crises, which will ultimately define its relevance and determine its path forward in global governance.
