Lichner is now director of UNICEF’s Washington D.C. office. There is no evidence to establish whether his conduct documented in Prosor’s archive continued after 2015, nor is there evidence that UNICEF knew about the correspondence when it appointed him.

But the emails documenting his past private collaboration with the Israeli government and leaks of confidential information concern many of the same institutions and issues now within his public portfolio, including dealings with Congress and humanitarian diplomacy related to the Gaza Strip.

The archive does not connect Prosor or any other Israeli officials to his later appointment to a senior role at UNICEF.

In April 2015, however, after Lichner thanked Prosor for the “tailwind” surrounding a boost to his standing at UNFPA, Prosor offered a satisfied reply on his efforts to help Lichner ascend within the UN bureaucracy: “Glad we had an influence.”
