Global Staff Forum: Make yourself heard

To All UNDP Staff Let's make our voice heard. Let's raise our concerns and demand from our leadership some strait answers about the state of affairs of our organization.

- Why UNDP need 17,500 Short Term Consultants (less than 30 days) and what is their added value?

- How are they selected and what does organization do to avoid conflict of interest, and not allow Resident Representatives to hire their family or friends?

- Why UNDP need 1512 Short Term Consultants (Contractors) to perform CORE functions in both Country Offices and Headquarters?

- Why UNDP leadership doesn't make proper use of the current staffing, and rotate better and faster the national staff, giving them a chance for growth within the organization, instead of hiring "long-term" contractors?

- Why has UNDP ACP awarded 2171 Waivers of Competitive Bids and 381 Direct Contracting without proper process and apparently with total lack of internal control mechanisms and oversight?

- Why UNDP Leadership condoning these actions?

- Why Audit Reports/Recommendations are not made available to all UNDP Staffers to read and learn from past failures and/or best practices?

- Why Audit Reports/Recommendations are not made available to our Donor Counterparts and Funding Clients including recipient Governments?
