Headline Secretary-General Pays Tribute to Detained, Abducted, and Missing Staff

Caption Description The International Day marks the armed abduction 18 years ago to the day of Alec Collett near Beirut Airport while on assignment for the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). The fate of Mr. Collett, a former journalist and Director of the UN Information Centre in Ghana, has never been determined. At least 39 staff members of the UN family of organizations are currently missing or ""disappeared"" --- possibly under arrest or being held in detention. Lapel pins intended to highlight the importance of staff security and safety were distributed to staff today on the occasion.
Secretary-General Kofi Annan (centre) and Elaine Collett hold the design of the lapel pin distributed at today's commemoration of The International Day of Solidarity with Detained and Missing Staff Members, held at Headquarters. The Secretary-General said in his message, he hoped staff would wear the pin and thereby help raise global awareness of a crucial issue of improving the safety and security of all United Nations staff.
