Maggie: United Nations NGO Forum in Geneva, 2 - 5 November 2014



FAWCO, with 16 participants, was one of the largest delegations at the Forum.  FAWCO member Sara von Moos was one of the organizers.
Ten FAWCO clubs were represented: AWC Berlin, AWC Lebanon, AAWE Paris, AWA Vienna, AIWC Cologne, AWA Rome, AWC The Hague, AWC Bern, AWC Zürich, and, of course, AWG-LR.

Former FAWCO President Kathleen Simon and her husband Andrew graciously opened their home and their numerous bedrooms to nine of us.  Many of us brought goodies from our regions (including some of my 2010 and 2011 wines) for the Sunday night pot-luck, but it was definitely not all partying.

A group of us,  including FAWCO President and several Vice-Presidents,  did a Clubs in Motion stint early Monday morning before heading to the UN for registration and the opening session of the Forum.
