What are they doing at the UN when they are not passing anti-Israel resolutions?

Over the last few years, we've grown accustomed to the UN passing anti-Israel resolutions or insulting our intelligence by putting Iran in a woman's rights commission.    This week, we learned that they may have other problems, such as sexual harassment:    
The United Nations has allowed sexual harassment and assault to flourish in its offices around the world, with accusers ignored and perpetrators free to act with impunity, the Guardian has been told.
Dozens of current and former UN employees described a culture of silence across the organisation and a flawed grievance system that is stacked against victims. 
Of the employees interviewed, 15 said they had experienced or reported sexual harassment or assault within the past five years. The alleged offences ranged from verbal harassment to rape.
Seven of the women had formally reported what happened, a route that campaigners say is rarely pursued by victims for fear of losing their job, or in the belief that no action will be taken.
“If you report it, your career is pretty much over, especially if you’re a consultant,” said one consultant, who alleged she was harassed by her supervisor while working for the World Food Programme. 
“It’s like an unsaid thing.”
I hope that we take a look at it.    It's bad!
