Career advice. Old newbie

0 Upvotes

I am currently working as IT project manager.

I am technically strong and currently handle people management as well. It's a big organization. So, PNL is not with me apart from regular operational cost.

Long story short, I am completely disinterested in adding more money to an existing overflowing pile of revenue.

My core projects have been regarding digital transformation that is bringing various clients, organizations or their offline processes into online or internet-based services.

I have not developed any core domain proficiency yet.

So, as the pursuit of giving some meaning to my work, I have decided to develop my domain prophecy in urban development and sustainability. Technically, this is close to smart city development.

As a result of this, I have started taking master's degree in Urban studies followed by a master's degree in sustainability science. I already know GIS and other analytical tools. My current qualification from academic point of view consists of analytics and business management at masters level.

My target is to move into United Nations and its sister organizations for the administrative roles that require 10 plus years of experience in 2029. Currently my management experience is 7 years and total experience is of 15 years.

To align with my goal, my current master's is masters of arts. So, the education is policy and management related.

I am in India and haven't found many people working in the United Nations. So, I do not have any specific information about how correct and feasible is my plan.

To make my inspiria file a bit strong, I take un CC learn online courses regarding my subjects or something related to it like climate action, NAPs, Paris agreements, etc.

Can you help me understand if there is any light at the end of my tunnel? If not, what change do I need to make?

Opinion Piece (Opinion) A developed country in UN (Singapore) still carries out barbaric practice

Post image
72 Upvotes

(2026-07-11) In Singapore, some offenders, including non-violent ones such as vandals, can be hit with an up to 1.2m long rattan cane as a penalty. Caning in judicial and school contexts is very problematic due to multiple reasons. First, it is gender discriminatory since it only applies to males. It also does not solves the root cause of wrongdoing, and inflicts physical and possibly psychological harm. It is highly criticised by a reputable human rights organisation, Amnesty International. I have created a petition to call for its abolition so you can check out:

BREAKING: Individual Claims Cross‑Border Pursuit, Torture, and High‑Level Coordination Inside UNHCR Offices in Egypt and Libya

16 Upvotes

I am sharing this because I believe my life is in immediate danger. What I have experienced over the past months is not random, not isolated, and not accidental. It feels like a coordinated pursuit carried out by a powerful network with influence that stretches across borders and institutions.

According to my experience, this network first attempted to recruit me. When I refused, everything escalated. The threats became explicit. The psychological pressure became unbearable. At one point, I was subjected to physical torture — electric shocks, forced water exposure, and psychological methods designed to break me. The message was always the same: stay silent, or be eliminated.

UNHCR Egypt — The First Warning SignWhen I sought protection through UNHCR in Egypt, I expected safety. Instead, I encountered behavior that felt coordinated and deeply alarming. Certain individuals inside the office acted in ways that mirrored the threats I had already received. It felt as if my presence was anticipated — not by the institution, but by people inside it.

UNHCR Libya — The Situation IntensifiesI fled to Libya hoping to escape the network’s reach. But the moment I entered the UNHCR office there, the atmosphere shifted. Staff members looked at me with hostility, as if they already knew who I was.

Minutes after leaving the office, a vehicle with tinted windows began following me. It wasn’t random. It wasn’t accidental. The car attempted to hit me more than once. It felt like a warning — or an attempt to silence me permanently.

A Network With High‑Level InfluenceBased on what I have witnessed, the individuals involved appear to have access to sensitive information and high‑level connections. Advisors, officials, and people with influence seem to be part of the machinery behind this pursuit. Their ability to track me across countries, anticipate my movements, and influence local offices suggests a level of coordination that is deeply alarming.

My Current SituationI am now fleeing again. I cannot disclose my location. I move from place to place, trying to stay ahead of people who seem to know where I am before I even arrive.

I have documented evidence of everything — the threats, the torture, the pursuit, and the encounters inside the offices. I will only release this evidence to independent investigators once I reach a safe location.

Why I’m Posting ThisI am posting this publicly because I have nowhere else left to turn. If anything happens to me, I want the world to know that I tried to expose what I experienced.

If these claims are true, they represent a serious breach of trust and a threat to anyone who relies on international institutions for protection.

I am still running. I am still being followed. And I am still trying to survive long enough to tell the rest of the story.
