So, You Want To Be The Next High Commissioner? 2015
Monday – Introduction to the UN and to Human Rights
We welcomed the participants at the UN headquarters and Aziel Goulandris started the training with welcome remarks and an introduction of the training as a whole. Every participant introduced themselves, saying their names, where they are from, and what they wish to learn from this program. We then proceeded to a guided tour of the UN. The participants were fascinated seeing the significant conference rooms and listening to the history of the United Nations Office in Geneva.
