Geneva Peace Week is a collective action initiative facilitated by the United Nations Office at Geneva (UNOG), the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies and the Geneva Peacebuilding Platform in collaboration with the Swiss Confederation.

This year, Geneva Peace Week will take place from 6 to 10 November 2017. In this fourth edition, Geneva Peace Week will, for the first time, focus on the theme “Prevention and effective pathways for implementation”.

As a partner of Geneva Peace Week, Rotary International will organise several events, in particular a workshop entitled “Education/Science, a pathway to Peace”, in which Barbora Bruant Gulejova, Science communication and outreach specialist, will take part.
