The Secretariat: Working out of the International Community
Located close to Geneva’s “Palais des Nations”, the Secretariat is responsible for the Forum’s day-to-day operations.
The Secretariat is based in Geneva, home to the European Headquarters of the United Nations and a large number of humanitarian, trade, health, development, scientific, information and communication organizations, as well as 161 diplomatic missions. Housed in the Villa Rigot, which the Canton of Geneva has kindly put at the disposition of the Forum, it works from within the centre of this distinctly international community.
