WHAT IS THE UNITED NATIONS DISPUTE TRIBUNAL?
The United Nations Dispute Tribunal (UNDT), as the “first instance tribunal” of the UN’s internal justice system, is the tribunal UN system staff members apply to when they decide to challenge an administrative decision made by an entity over which the UNDT has Jurisdiction, and which the Applicant believes violates their rights as a staff member due to non-compliance with the terms of their appointment or contract of employment.
