Monthly presidency assessments are crucial to preparation of Council’s Annual Report (with table)
Updated 18 May 2022
Timely adoption of the Security Council's Annual Report to the General Assembly is always a challenge, owing not only to the Council's very heavy monthly work programme, but also to the late submission by individual Council members of their monthly presidency assessments, which are a key building block for the Council member tasked with drafting the Report's Introduction . . .

Security Council members which belong to the ACT group
When the “Accountability, Coherence and Transparency Group for better working methods for today’s UN Security Council” (ACT) was launched in 2013, it was initially made up of twenty-one States: Austria, Chile, Costa Rica, Estonia, Finland, Gabon, Hungary, Ireland, Jordan, Liechtenstein, New Zealand, Norway, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland, Tanzania and Uruguay.
In subsequent months, Denmark, Ghana, Luxembourg, Maldives, Rwanda, and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines joined ACT. Then in 2015, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and Tanzania, ceased to be members. Somewhat later, Ecuador and Latvia joined the group.
Thus presently 27 States belong to ACT, with a regional composition as follows:
Africa (4): Gabon, Ghana, Maldives, Rwanda
Asia-Pacific (3): Jordan, Papua New Guinea, Saudi Arabia
Eastern Europe (4): Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Slovenia
Latin America and Caribbean States (5): Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay
Western Europe and Other States (11): Austria, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland
Of these 27 ACT members, Estonia, Ireland and Norway are serving on the Security Council in 2021. In 2022, four ACT members will be sitting on the Council: Gabon, Ghana, Ireland and Norway.
