Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Under Articles 55 and 62 of the Charter of the United Nations, the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) initiates studies, makes recommendations with respect to international economic, social, cultural, educational, and health matters, promotes higher standards of living and human welfare, and makes recommendations for promoting respect for and observance of human rights and fundamental freedoms. Under Article 63(2), ECOSOC merely coordinates the activities of the specialised agencies through consultation with and recommendations to such agencies and the General Assembly; it does not exercise supervision and control over their functions.
