摘要

As Nature went to press, Irina Gueorguieva Bokova, a Bulgarian diplomat, and Farouk Hosny, Egypt's minister of culture, faced off in a final electoral round to become director-general of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The vote, by the agency's executive board, is subject to confirmation in October by its general conference.rnThe election highlights UNESCO's faults. The agency publishes a list of the candidates' names, but nothing on their qualifications or vision for the agency. In truth, nominations and the secret voting are largely down to horse-trading among member states.rnSuch anachronistic processes need to change, but so does much else at this suffocatingly bureaucratic organization. An independent review of UNESCO's science portfolio in 2007 reached the damning conclusion that "UNESCO has over time lost its leadership credibility as an international spokesman for science, and its programmes are now seen by the scientific community as fragmented, over-ambitious, unfocused and lacking a clear vision and scientific strategy".
