Introduction
Welcome to the Global Model WHO, jointly organized by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the World Federation of United Nations Associations (WFUNA) at the WHO Headquarters. Join us for five immersive days of engaging debate, hands-on collaboration, and meaningful dialogue with WHO experts as you tackle the most pressing global health challenges of our time.
Set against the backdrop of Geneva’s stunning landscapes and the iconic Jet d’Eau fountain, the conference venue is within walking distance of many of the city’s historic landmarks and cultural attractions. As a global hub for international diplomacy, Geneva is home to leading institutions such as the United Nations Office at Geneva (UNOG), the World Health Organization (WHO), the World Trade Organization (WTO), as well as numerous diplomatic missions and non-governmental organizations. This makes it the ideal setting for meaningful dialogue and impactful global health discussions.
During their free time, attendees can explore the city’s rich history, vibrant culture, and major sights, including the Palais des Nations, Geneva’s Old Town, or the famous Flower Clock. Discover local treasures at the city’s markets and unwind amidst the natural beauty of Lake Geneva.
