Let’s celebrate! | |
Save the date! On 20 January 2015, the Geneva Environment Network (GEN) will celebrate its fifteenth anniversary.
Hosted by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and supported by the Swiss Federal Office of Environment, GEN has been, for the last fifteen years, the Geneva hub for a myriad of actors to meet and debate pressing green challenges.
With the objective of celebrating a very diverse network, which offers interactive debates with key actors of the ‘International Geneva’, we will celebrate GEN with a lively panel discussion with personalities from governments, the United Nations family, the private sector, NGOs, universities and foundations. We will discuss how key players imagine the world will be in 15 years. Will it be 'brown' or 'green'? What needs to be done for their vision to come true?
Join us at the International Environment House on 20 January 2015 at 11.00am.
