She used her tenure to advance the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in the context of the pandemic. Her work on the Oslo Accords, though overshadowed by her husband, was instrumental in the peace process's success.

Her primary recognition is the presidency of the UN Economic and Social Council, an elected position that reflects peer respect.
