Geneva Peace Week is a week of several dozen workshops and panels run jointly by the UN office at Geneva, the Graduate Institute and the city's peacebuilding organisations — a conference rather than a festival, and we file it because MOLT does and because it is a genuine annual fixture of international Geneva.
No attendance figure applies in the festival sense.
Most sessions are free but require registration, and a substantial part of the programme is now hybrid, which has changed what being in the city for it means.
It sits in the same civic category as the WEF at the other end of the year and the other end of the political spectrum: an event that exists because of what Geneva institutionally is, rather than because of anything about the city as a place.
PlanningA late-autumn window; most sessions are free but require registration.
