handle is hein.gao/gaobabevt0001 and id is 1 raw text is: BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL Report To The Committee On Foreign Affairs And Committee On Science And Technology House Of Representatives OF THE UN TED STATES Improvements Needed In UNESCO's Management, Personnel, Financial, And Budgeting Practices In December 1983, the United States announced that it was withdrawing from the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) effective December 31, 1984, because the Organization had be- come politicized, had allowed its budget to grow un- restrained, and had not properly managed its personnel, programs and financial activities. On February 29, 1984, the House Committees on Foreign Affairs and on Science and Technology requested that GAO review UNESCO's personnel, program, budget, and financial management. GAO does not make specific recommendations to UNESCO, an international organization, but has obser- vations on certain management areas it believes need attention. These include increasing oversight of the Secretariat's day-to-day activities by the governing bodies (the General Conference and Executive Board), re- examining the personnel system to identify ways of reducing recruiting delays and the heavy reliance on supplementary staff, improving program evaluation and budget formulation and presentation, improving certain financial controls, and improving the Secretariat's re- sponsiveness to external auditor recommendations. \ $D Sr14 GAO/NSIAD-85-32 t/ccOU, NOVEMBER 30, 1984
