It cuts deep. We work in a sector that is meant to help people and yet the United Nations has created a safe space for abusers to thrive. Lauren and Teia are left asking where the accountability is and how you begin dismantling such a powerful institution?</p><p><br></p><p>CALL TO ACTION: Please share this documentary far and wide, everybody need's to see this. </p><p><br></p><p>Documentary: <a href=\"https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0018ljw     \" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Whistleblowers: Inside the UN</a> </p><p>Where to watch outside the UK: <a href=\"https://www.bbcselect.com/world/   \" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">BBC Select</a>, <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYkIo8gu4_A    \" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube</a>, <a href=\"https://www.expressvpn.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">VPN - Express </a></p><p><br></p><p>Trigger Warning: Lauren and Teia discuss instances of sexual harassment, rape, abuse, criminal activity and many more instances where the United Nations has abused power.
