UPU supports initiatives to boost recovery
The UPU fully supports a range of initiatives designed to boost economic recovery unveiled by the chief executives of the United Nations system when they met in Paris in early April. Director General Edouard Dayan joined the heads of 28 UN bodies, including Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, to discuss the economic crisis, on the heels of the UPU's own debate on the crisis's impact on the postal sector, held at its headquarters on April 2.
