The official website of the UK Mission to the United Nations, Geneva

This re-launched website is part of our wider efforts to share and communicate the work we undertake in Geneva everyday on behalf of the UK. We work on solutions to the biggest global challenges. We work to promote better human rights, freer and fairer trade, better governance of UN institutions, as well as action on climate change, global health and humanitarian disasters. In doing this we believe good partnerships, collaboration, and ideas are crucial. We welcome your suggestions on how to improve this site, and how we can help you to better understand and support the work we undertake.
