United Nations Peacekeeping Operations and the Use of Force Ruth Wedgwood∗ The question of United Nations peacekeeping and the use of force might seem to be a specialized topic. However, it is at the root of much of the dissatisfaction with the performance of the United Nations (UN)–both inside and outside the organization. When one views the UN up close, in the field and in New York, much of the unsteadiness in discharging its missions stems from the organization’s deep ambivalence about the proper use of force in international conflict resolution and its hobbled ability to muster efficacious force. Originally, in the midst of World War II, the UN was not a building on First Avenue, but the anti-fascist alliance itself.

  • Cathy Cutler Has Been Overwhelmed with Counting, Recording and Banking Coins
    Wheelchairs for Kids Inc. JULY - DECEMBER 2018 VOLUME 15 ISSUE 90 43,077 wheelchairs donated in 20 years of production. 2018 - A Year of Milestones Achieved. 20 Years of Wheelchair Production - See Page 3 Over 200 Workshop Volunteers - See Page 5 Over 40,000 Wheelchairs Donated - See Page 7 Over 70 Countries Involved - See Page 7 Since 1998 a Project of the Rotary Club of Scarborough, Western Australia, assisted by The Christian Brothers. We listen, we care, we give to disabled children and their families around the world. A Word from the CEO Another great year has come to an end with wheelchairs produced approaching 4,000. Not just a standard wheelchair! — I like this description fromNina Murray an Australian volunteer occupational therapist in her report on teaching wheelchair fitting in Nepal. “The Wheelchairs for Kids wheelchair is a high quality unit suitable for complex seating for children with severe disabilities”. Shouldn’t we be proud. We’ve had a welcome increase in local fund raising this year, as in addition to the usual functions as morning teas, quiz night, garden party, coin cans etc., volunteers have been active. Steve Pratt has instituted Bunnings sausage sizzles, John Jeffery organised the Perth tin shaking collection and Gerry McCarthy organised exhibitions at shows and shopping centers. Roz Davies’ honey sales have been a hit and Vic Hersey’s lovingly built pedal car plane raffle has taken off. All great promotion initiatives. Cathy Cutler has been overwhelmed with counting, recording and banking coins. With friends in the right places, volunteer Jenny Price obtained a $5,000 donation from Fortescue Community Support.
