Following more than a decade of service to the United
Nations, Catherine Bertini joined the faculty of the Maxwell
School of Citizenship and Public Affairs in 2005 as Professor of
Public Administration. She teaches courses in Humanitarian
Action, UN Management, and Girls' Education, drawing on the vast
experience she gained during her years of leadership in public
sector management, international organizations, humanitarian
relief, and nutrition policy.
Professor Bertini’s career spans public service at international,
national, state, and local levels and includes private sector and
foundation experience. She
was the driving force behind reform of the United Nations World Food
Programme (WFP), where she
was the Chief Executive for ten years.
During her tenure, WFP’s institutional changes in the area of
efficiency, effectiveness, and accountability were cited by the United
States government and the thirty-six-government board of WFP as a model
of UN reform.
