Can a critical mass of states band together to defend rule of law & increase the costs of using force--reputational, economic costs?
Security Council reform remains a top priority for Austria! 🌎🌍🌏
At last week's 4th edition of the Open House, civil society and academia from around the world participated in an in-depth exchange with Member States on advancing the shared objective of reform.

My piece @CarnegieEndow on what #FFD4 means for dev finance, Global South, multilateralism—& key outcomes.
