Quotes

Michel Jarraud
Secretary General of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO)
"Geneva, the world's capital of international diplomacy, has become a location of choice to address issues related to weather, climate and the environment. Governments and various players in the international community can meet easily in Geneva. They appreciate the city's tradition of hospitality and the quality of its infrastructure - including an excellent local public transportation network and international airport, which makes it easier for our delegates to travel. Free access to the international conference centre ICCG is also an important feature."
