Anything to do with the UN is highly politicised, so I would steer clear.

A plug for my former residence: Switzerland, and Geneva in particular, is
very friendly to non-governmental organisations, with the emphasis on
"non". But if we go for a US-based solution, that doesn't help. And for
UN & ITU interactions, we will still have ISOC in Geneva. Better not
throw that baby out with the bathwater.
