A new Al Jazeera survey explores public perceptions of the United Nations’ effectiveness in addressing conflicts, gathering direct feedback from communities in Bangladesh, Gaza, and Nigeria. Respondents in these regions—each facing distinct challenges—share their views on whether the UN can bridge divisions, provide humanitarian aid, or restore stability. The findings highlight how local perspectives on global peacekeeping efforts differ sharply depending on the nature of the crisis and the UN’s visible impact. For those questioning the organization’s reach, the survey offers a rare firsthand look at ground-level expectations.
Al Jazeera asked people in Bangladesh, Gaza and Nigeria what they think of the UN’s role in resolving conflicts.
