UK Mission Geneva
We engage with every country or organisation that is a member of, or an observer to, an international body where we are also members or observers. We focus on UK participation in international organisations and therefore don’t provide consular or visa services.
Geneva is host to a vast range of UN bodies, agencies and programmes, as well as the World Trade Organization. Other important non-UN organisations such as the International Organisation for Migration, the Conference on Disarmament and the International Committee of the Red Cross are headquartered in Geneva. Many NGOs, faith groups and private sector organisations play an important advocacy role throughout the system.
We work with these partners on a daily basis to ensure that UK interests and views are taken into account. This includes representing the UK in negotiations. The UK is a major supporter of the multilateral system in Geneva, with total funding commitments of approximately £2 billion per year.
