The high-profile group of campaigners, which includes Martina Brostrom, who maintains she was sexually assaulted by a former U.N. assistant secretary general while she worked for UNAIDS, wants Theresa May and the Department for International Development to intervene over the conduct of the agency’s executive director, Michel SidibĂ©. The U.K. will chair the organization’s programming board when it meets in Geneva in June…” (Beaumont, 6/1).
