Welcome to Global Weekly's interview series. In our latest interview, Head of Interviews Andrew Smith sits down with Sir Charles Petrie, former Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations, former UN Resident & Humanitarian coordinator of Myanmar and author of the "Triumph of Evil". Petrie dives deep into his experiences during the 1994 Rwandan Genocide, 2007-2008 Saffron Revolution in Myanmar, and evolving roles within the United Nations. Navigating the complexities of international institutions, Petrie shares a powerful insight into the role of individual agency and the dangers of inaction when confronted by humanitarian crises. #unitednations #humanrights #rwanda #myanmar #diplomacy https://lnkd.in/eE8c6uds
