A Word from our Geneva Peace Week Lead Dany Diogo

Dear Colleagues,

The Geneva Peacebuilding Platform (GPP) has been busy these past few months focusing, among other things, on the preparation of the 10th edition of the Geneva Peace Week (GPW), which will take place from 30 October to 3 November 2023 at the Maison de la Paix. 

Over the past decade, GPW’s reputation as a leading international forum on peace has grown in size, scale, and expertise. On the occasion of the 10-year anniversary, we decided to take stock of the past decade and use this opportunity to take the GPW to new heights.

We will enrich the GPW experience, for both partner organisations and attendees. We will also expand the outreach of the GPW to new audiences by building bridges between local and international Geneva. We will explore new ways of discussing peace, and bring art and culture to the forum throughout the week. While the transition to a hybrid version of GPW in 2022 came with its challenges, in 2023 we will be as inclusive as possible, streaming a majority of our onsite events online for this 10th edition.

The GPP benefits now from a brand new team that is 100 % committed to making the 10-year anniversary a milestone in GPW’s history. Let’s begin a new chapter together! Meanwhile, visit our new website and have a look at the call for applications. The GPW23 programme and registration will be available on 25 September 2023. 

With warm regards,

Dany Diogo
Geneva Peace Week Lead
