About this blog

  • Thinking Ethics was a project launched in Geneva to foster the debate about ethics. A few friends, fed up with only reading about abuses in the media, decided to hold a forward-looking seminar on five subjects: ethics and performance, ethics and knowledge, ethics and consciousness, ethics and disobedience and ethics in real time. If moral has to do with right and wrong, then ethics is its application in society. We believe that people need to talk about the subject to determine the level of ethics they want. The book Thinking Ethics, a result of the seminar, is to start the discussion. This blog is a contribution to the conversation.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Since my participation with the UN Internal Appeals System from 1997 to 2005(in good faith). Ever since, it appears that I am not considered for employment with the UN despite many job application attempts.

Currently, part of the outcome of my case is published on the internet(Please type Calvin Yearwood on google search machine)

My question is : Have I, or, my name "Calvin yearwood" 'permeated' the entire UN Organizational Structure in a negative way?

Thank you in advance.
