PODCAST: Eight decades on, we need the UN more than ever

There was a wealth of stories to follow at high-level week of the UN General Assembly, from the conference on the Israel-Palestine two-State solution, to the ambitious pledges made at the Climate Summit, and the launch of two bodies aimed at finally creating truly inclusive international AI governance. But one theme that shone through was the importance of multilateralism and the work of the United Nations. Conor Lennon and Laura Quinones from UN News break it all down in this special episode of The Lid Is On. Music: Joachim Harris, all rights reserved
