photographer and the United Nations. Could
you tell us a little about it?
It was a very pleasant presentation about
the learnings and beautiful and also difficult
spotlights on my experience and carrier working
at and with the United Nations. I was very happy
to note the tremendous welcome and interest on
the work of the United Nations during this event.
I was also surprised to see the strong quest from
this part of Switzerland to know and understand
better the work of the United Nations. I had
several interviews in the German- language
media afterwards. Geneva – and International
Geneva in particular – is something that is
not particularly well-known in that part of the
country. There was a full room, and people were
still standing in line outside, waiting for space to
sit or stand to attend the event. It lasted two hours.
I spoke about my work and carrier, the United
Nations, and the different trips made around
the world and the very nice moments spent with
people in different contexts and countries which
is reflected in my photos. Telling the stories
about moments captured in my photos was a
game changer during this presentation and thus
something I would like to reproduce in other
parts of Switzerland and Europe.

If people needed your services, could they call
you?
Of course, new clients are always welcome.
