In an explosive reaction to the BBC documentary on the United Nations Whistleblowers, Lauren and Teia let their feelings be known about how the United Nations has continued to abuse its power with some of the most vulnerable people in the world suffering as a result. It cuts deep. We work in a sector that is meant to help people and yet the United Nations has created a safe space for abusers to thrive. Lauren and Teia are left asking where the accountability is and how you begin dismantling such a powerful institution?
