The swissnex team
____________________________
A year ago, Switzerland joined the United Nations. The country is also
member of more than 100 international organizations. With our guest
speaker from the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs,
Claude-Georges Ducret, let’s glance at some issues :
- what is an international organization ? how does it function ?
- why is Switzerland member of more than 100 international
organizations ?
- what are some of the challenges before the international community ?
- why not a professional career in international organizations ?
- what are the requirements and the procedure ?
M. Ducret will be available the following day for personal discussions.
Hope you can join us at swissnex for this interesting conference, the
discussion opportunities, and the networking !
