The Presidency's Directorate of Communications will hold a panel in 12 countries to emphasize the critical need for United Nations Security Council reform.
The panel, "A New Approach to United Nations Security Council Reform: A New Approach to Reconstructing the International Order," will host local and foreign participants who are experts in their fields.
The panel aims to point out how the international community and international organizations faced significant challenges in the face of problems in recent years and how the international system was ineffective in addressing these challenges.
The panel also aims to push for a fairer, more democratic and more representative structure in the Security Council.
In a statement, Presidential Communications Director Fahrettin Altun said the panel series aims to raise awareness to reactivate the international system and design a new United Nations and Security Council so that the United Nations does not suffer the fate of its predecessor, the League of Nations.
In this context, Altun pointed out that the U.N.'s legitimacy, functionality, effectiveness, inclusiveness, representation and governance issues will be highlighted.
Previously, panels were held in Italy and Argentina, and the second leg of the panel series will start in the French capital of Paris on Aug. 16.
The panels will continue in London on Aug. 18, Norway on Aug. 22, Sweden on Aug. 24 and in the Netherlands on Aug. 26.
These will be followed by panels in South Africa, Germany, South Korea, Japan, Spain and Russia. The last event will be held in New York within the framework of the U.N. General Assembly in September.
