There is little doubt which word won the award for most important adjective in 2009. This was a year in which “global” eclipsed the rest of the political vocabulary. There was a “global crisis” and a “global challenge”, and the only possible solution lay in a “global solution”, which required a “global agreement”.
[These global agreements]once held what were considered the most fundamental principles of modern democracy: that elected governments are responsible to their people; Will it dispel the idea that it derives from voter consent?
There will be no place to run from the New World Government.
– Janet Daly
If you ask ordinary people what they think the role of the United Nations is, they will likely answer: peacekeeping Like Bosnia or through its agents WHO (World Health Organization) It provides leadership on global health issues and is responsible for shaping the health research agenda. Even fewer may point out that in 1948 the United Nations General Assembly adopted and declared: universal declaration of human rights. Article 21(1) and (3) states:
- All people have the right to participate in the government of their country, either directly or through freely elected representatives.
- The will of the people is the basis of government authority. This will shall be expressed in regular and genuine elections by universal and equal suffrage, carried out by secret ballot or equivalent free voting procedure.
With little to choose from between the election promises of Britain's three main political parties, it's time to ask: “Why don't you choose?”
In this series of articles, I will first show readers how the plans of the United Nations and its agencies continue to shape British government and opposition policy. Next, let's take a quick look at a few policies. A non-governmental organization that drives the work of the United Nations behind the scenes and ultimately considers some of its policies disguised as if they originated in either the Westminster Parliament or the Scottish Parliament.
United Nations, Agenda 21, Millennium Development Goals
Our journey begins with a brief study of United Nations documents United Nations, Agenda 21, Millennium Development Goals – Strengthening the role of non-governmental organizations: Partners for Sustainable Development”
This United Nations document outlines how governments are required to create a legal environment in which non-governmental organizations (NGOs) can operate effectively within society. These non-governmental organizations provide ground forces for the implementation and monitoring of UN policies (Agenda 21). NGOs become consulted and claim to represent public opinion in stakeholder consultations. What is actually happening is that individual votes are stolen and participatory democracy is undermined. This is what the United Nations has to say:-
rationale for action
- Non-governmental organizations play an important role in shaping and implementing participatory democracy. Grassroots movements as well as formal and informal organizations should be recognized as partners in the implementation of Agenda 21.
- One of the major challenges facing the world community as it seeks to replace unsustainable development patterns with environmentally sustainable development is the need to galvanize a sense of common purpose on behalf of all sectors of society. It's necessity.
- Non-governmental organizations, including nonprofit organizations representing the groups addressed in this section of Agenda 21, have well-established and diverse experience. The community of non-governmental organizations therefore provides a global network that should be leveraged, enabled and strengthened to support efforts to achieve these common goals.
the purpose
- Society, governments and international organizations need to develop mechanisms that enable non-governmental organizations to play their partnership roles responsibly and effectively.
- With a view to strengthening the role of non-governmental organizations as social partners, the United Nations system and national governments, in consultation with non-governmental organizations, will review formal procedures and mechanisms for the engagement of these organizations at all levels. The process should start. From policy making and decision making to implementation.
Governments should take the following steps:
- Agenda 21…Involve non-governmental organizations in established national structures and procedures, especially in the areas of education, poverty alleviation and environmental protection.
- Consider the results of non-governmental monitoring and review mechanisms in the design and evaluation of policies regarding the implementation of Agenda 21 at all levels.
- Review government education systems and identify ways to incorporate and expand the involvement of non-governmental organizations in the areas of formal and non-formal education and public awareness.
It is also said that:
Governments should promulgate or strengthen the legal measures necessary to enable the establishment of consultative groups by non-governmental organizations and to ensure the right of non-governmental organizations to protect the public interest through legal measures, subject to country-specific conditions. There is.
Is there any evidence that this is actually happening?
Yes, there is. for example, Hello Agenda 21 Environment Forum, January 21, 2009 Please tell me:
MO provided background on the Earth Charter (attached). This was an international effort operating within the United Nations. Like Agenda 21, its origins date back to the 1992 Rio Earth Summit. …It was a document with a universal and common purpose, and that purpose was easily supported, especially by people as diverse as Hallows. There is no reason why it should not be approved by Halo Council and/or Halo Agenda 21.

Impact of Local Agenda 21 (LA 21) across Europe
Document examination Policy and Practice LASALA: Assessing Local Agenda 21 in Europe, BOB EVANS & KATE THEOBALD, Institute for Sustainable Cities, Northumbria University, 6 North Street East, NewcastleUpon Tyne NE1 8ST, UK”. Provides interesting reading material. This paper reports on the main findings of the recent Local Government Self-Assessment of Local Agenda 21 (LASALA) project, which carried out a Europe-wide research program on the European LA 21 initiative. This tells us:
Local Agenda 21 (LA 21) may be considered one of the most enduring and perhaps most effective outcomes of the 1992 Rio de Janeiro “Earth Summit.” In Europe alone, around 4,000 cities, regional and local level municipalities and municipalities are currently engaged in some type of LA 21 process.
Harmonization of individual programming cycles
within Report of the Secretary-General of the United Nations, 54th session, Annex No. 1 (A/54/1), 31 August 1999 let readers know that
In response to the General Assembly's call for further harmonization and simplification of the policies and procedures used by United Nations agencies, teams from 100 countries are now planning to start their respective program cycles simultaneously, with all national programs will be in harmony. Cycle by 2004.
What this means, in layman's terms, is that UN policies are simultaneously implemented in member states. One classic example is the global smoking ban introduced in accordance with the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.
More specifically, this document also states:
United Nations agency residences (UN Houses) on common premises foster a greater sense of community and common purpose… In many countries, we are using “virtual” facilities that connect separate offices internally. ” We are promoting the United Nations House. – A national intranet improves the sharing of information, practices and expertise.
Keywords: elections, Agenda 21, Millennium Development Goals, NGOs (non-governmental organizations, common purpose, global networks, partnerships, consultative groups, grassroots movements, programming cycles, harmonization).
In a later article, a networked, semi-secret international leadership organization common purpose plays an important role in the UN Agenda 21 change program.
In Part 2, researcher and author Nikki Rapana explains how and why governments began amending their domestic laws to accommodate a global communitarian world governance system.
