There are UN reports concerning North Korea, in case you are curious to know

The United Nations Human Rights Council has established a Commission of Inquiry (COI) to investigate systematic, widespread and grave violations of human rights in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

It's been eight years. Are they done inquiring? Has a report been published or how far along are they on publishing it?

Human Rights
Women forcibly returned to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) are subjected to torture, ill treatment, sexual abuse, and other violations, according to a [report published on Tuesday by the UN Human Rights office.  

So we have the report. The inquiry started 2 months into Obama's second term and finished when Trump was running for reelection against Obama's then Vice President. That's 7 years, 4 months. What was done with the report? What did the United Nations Secretariat, Human Rights Council, or the General Assembly decide to do with this information? What specific parts of the United Nations Charter were violated? Was action taken against the People's Republic of Korea for violating said parts of the Charter? Were they kicked off the Human Rights Council for a UN-commissioned inquiry into the state commented on human rights abuses? When was the vote held on all this, either in the General Assembly, the Human Rights Council, or the Security Council? How did everyone vote?

Why does the Trusteeship Council still exist when all trusts are expended? Why does the Military Staff Committee exist and meet every 2 weeks when it has been effectively inactive since 1948? Where in the world is Benon Sevan? Why has the membership of the Security Council not been updated to change the Soviet Union member to the Russian Federation or to clarify "China" seeing as the state representing China in the 1970s was switched but the paperwork never updated? Why has little from Kofi Annan's book "In Larger Freedom" on reforming the United Nations been looked at, considered, and if the General Assembly approves, implemented? Why is Ban Ki-Moon considered such a disappointment by people that believe in the United Nations as an entity? https://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/20/opinion/sunday/i-love-the-un-but-it-is-failing.html

My favorite UN thing I learned about is there is a United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs. It is based in Vienna.
