Having a partner that works in a UN run institution as a researcher I have seen first hand how bureaucratic and starved for funds that entity truly is.

Getting funds for paperclips is a massive battle.

From what I hear they used to just staple them together, what with the lack of paperclips.

But now the stapler seems to have gone missing.

Its quite the pickle.
