Geneva Forum Partner Organisations

The Geneva Forum is a unique consortium of a nongovernmental organisation, a United Nations body and an academic institution:

 
QUNO

The Quaker United Nations Office (QUNO) has been at work in Geneva since 1948. Through its seminars, encounters, active presence where possible in negotiations, and links both to the diplomatic and international organization community and to a whole range of international networks, QUNO is ideally placed to provide a critical non-governmental element in the Geneva Forum "triad".
UNIDIR

The United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR), an inter-governmental organization within the United Nations, conducts research on disarmament and security. Working with researchers, diplomats, officials and non-governmental organizations, UNIDIR acts as a bridge between the research community and governments and promotes informed debate within United Nations structures.

PSIS

The Centre on Conflict, Development and Peacebuilding (CCPD) operates as a policy-relevant academic research programme at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, and successfully organises activities that bring together scholars, activists and practitioners.
Each of the Geneva Forum partner organisations is active in policy-relevant research on issues of concern to the international security community in Geneva. Also, they have all catalysed contacts between governmental and non-governmental representatives, or between Northern and Southern policy-makers, researchers and activists, through a variety of past and ongoing activities. Leading individuals within each organisation have access to extensive and complementary international networks within academic, policy-making, and advocacy circles.
