Thanks for source of UN power and Question

Reader comment on item: Blame the UN's Power on George H.W. Bush

Submitted by Dr Bryan Poulin (Canada), Feb 10, 2012 at 14:05

Dear Daniel,

Thanks for helping me better understand sources and limits to UN power. I have attempted a project through the world bank on management of health care and our group, unfortunately came up a bit short (when time allows, I will try and complete the project). Right now I am on a subcommittee looking into whether our Faculty of Business should join a UN sponsored initiative titled, PRME - Principles for Responsible Management Education.

On the surface, PRME looks good to us. Do you know of anyone with who knows enough to have offered or can offer a fair critique on this?

Regards, Bryan
