Lee Woodyear

Communications Manager Officer Spokesperson @United Nations

I worked as a communications specialist in the United Nations for more than 15 years. I was promoted through a number of positions, in different entities, and developed and managed many projects and campaigns. I began as the Spokesperson for the High Commissioner for Human Rights in post-genocide Rwanda. I branded the United Nations Police, worked for the Office of Rule of Law and became the Senior Communications officer for the United Nations Joint Staff Pension Fund. My primary concern in this position was explaining the Byzantine rules and regulations of this 70-year-old institution to the members of this 65 billion dollar fund.
