The Faculty of the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities, UOW, warmly invites you to the book launch of Stephen Hill's latest book, "In Defence of Our Humanity - Real Life as a United Nations Ambassador in a Troubled World".

As a Biography, the book’s story is of Stephen’s direct experience working with the United Nations for many years as Professorial Advisor, and Policy Consultant across the world, then for over a decade as full time Member of Staff – based in Indonesia and part-time in Paris, serving as United Nations Regional Director for Science for Asia and the Pacific as well as Principal Field Director and Ambassador of the United Nations Agency UNESCO (the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization).

Written for the general public, ‘In Defence of Our Humanity’ is dramatic and engaging as Stephen is opening up the inside-story of his life within the United Nations, making a positive difference out in the very real troubled world of developing and volatile countries.

There will also be an opportunity to buy the book and have it signed by the author.
