**Analysis**
The text appears to be discussing the work of the United Nations, specifically the Council, in developing a medium-term plan for the period 1992-1997. The plan involves identifying major policy themes, reviewing the progress of subsidiary bodies, and improving the working methods of the Council. The text also mentions the importance of coordination and cooperation among international organizations. Given the focus on international organizations, policy themes, and coordination, it is likely that the text falls under the category of international cooperation.
