In 2026, which international organisation began the process of selecting the 10th Secretary-General to succeed António Guterres?
United Nations
The head of the United Nations Secretariat is called the Secretary-General. António Guterres of Portugal became the 9th Secretary-General on 1 January 2017, and his second five-year term ends on 31 December 2026.
In 2026 the UN General Assembly and Security Council formally began the selection process for the 10th Secretary-General, under which the Security Council recommends a candidate and the General Assembly appoints for a five-year term.
Neither the World Economic Forum, the ICJ nor the Commonwealth Secretariat has a "Secretary-General" post held by Guterres, so they cannot be conducting a succession.
Hence, the answer is the United Nations.
