Abstract :

This contribution informs the Council Working Group on Financial and Human Resources (CWG-FHR) of the exceptional support measures adopted by Switzerland as Host Country to strengthen the resilience of international organisations in Geneva and support business continuity during the current financial challenges affecting the multilateral system. It proposes that the corresponding support granted to the ITU be allocated to the "Business Continuity for Meetings" Fund, which was set up by Decision 1434 in order to ensure the continuity of ITU's conference activities in Switzerland during the construction phase of the new headquarters building and the renovation of the Geneva International Conference Centre (CICG).
