post.

We stayed in Geneva for the weekend. Relaxed on saturday morning and went shopping and out to eat. Then we proceeded to the techno party downtown. It was such a crazy place. A lot of fun at the time but looking back on it, i never want to do that again ha ha.
Sunday was also relaxing. I actually dont think i accomplished anything on Sunday. great use of my short time in switzerland.

Monday we spent the day at the Geneva Environment Network or UNEP. We were given lectures on the environment's relation in security policy etc. Today was somewhat the same, except we had focused specific lectures on environment assesssment groups, depleted uranium, and climate change. Then we all took place in a negotiation dialogue about windmills. My group lost.

Tomorrow we have another negotiation dialogue in which I am playing the role of a local government official in Cambodia on the issue of Landmines. This should be really interesting because we have a lot of different delegation groups going to be participating.
