So I have a question regarding GDPR. I've recently done two projects for intergovernmental organizations (like the UN, to give you an example). Both organizations claim that they do not have to comply with GDPR. I kindof doubt that but IANAL. Short of reading the GDPR laws, or contacting an expensive lawyer, what's the best way to find out if they are right? I'd like to find out before I start the next project for such an organization. Thanks.

Read the document: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELE...
That's the cheapest. It's not really that hard to understand. I'm not a lawyer, read it and had a GDPR consulting firm review the tweaks we made of our systems. They were happy with it.
But if you're working for a larger company, then consult with their legal department or have the company hire a GDPR consulting firm. They should be able to afford it without a problem, and will likely be happy to support such an action if the non-compliance risk is deemed large enough. A business decision, not a technical one.
