United Nations : UN Undersecretary General Asha-Rose Migiro inaugurated the 46th session of the UN Social Development Commission on Wednesday, devoted this time to discuss the world situation of employment and decent work.
Highlighting the responsibility of this body, Migiro, who is Tanzania’s former foreign minister, said that if development is the cornerstone of the United Nations, “you are the foundations of this column.”
She noted that decent work is not only a goal per se, but is essential to wipe out poverty and promote social integration, both of which are mainstays for development.
We must secure that decent work is at the center of national development strategies as a crucial objective in policies, institutions, legislations and regulations at national and international levels, she added.
