Special End of the Year G|O Offer: Save 30% on our subscription | This is What You Made Possible in 2023. Help Us Do It Again Next Year.

Friends, 

2023 has been an incredible year for us at The Geneva Observer, as we made the switch to a fully reader-supported model in August. But we still need your help to make 2024 another great year. We have plenty of projects and ideas for when our regular Thursday evening Geneva Observer Briefing returns to your inbox on January 12. Please help us make them become a reality. We have extended our discounted subscription, CHF 99.00, with a free one-month trial period. Subscribing today will give you access to all the content on our site, and you won't be charged for a month.

The Geneva Observer starts where news ends. The investigations we carry out, the stories we write, and the opinion pieces we choose are not found elsewhere. We believe they are vital in understanding how International Geneva works and how it is impacted by world events.

But our independent, informed stories require meticulous research, sourcing, and careful writing. They do not come to us; we craft them. They take time to put together. The G|O is slow journalism, light years away from quick headlines and from the chatter of social media. Judge for yourself: Here are, freely accessible, some of the standout stories and op-eds your support has made possible this year.

➤ The UN in Geneva, in the Red and the Cold

➤ Showdown between Workers and Employers at the ILO: Workers and 36 Member States are asking the Governing Body to call upon the International Court of Justice to rule on the right to strike. Employers are accusing the ILO of partiality

➤ Buying and Spending in a Country at War. How has the UNHCR Performed in Ukraine

➤ Threshold of Dialogue with Hamas and Russia

➤ The Clock is Once Again Ticking at A Paralyzed World Trade Organization. Will It Spring Back to Life?

➤ Polywars and Polyamourous Politics

➤ Seized By The ILO, the International Court of Justice Will Rule on the Right To Strike. Why Did Russia and China Oppose the move?

➤ The Inside Story of A Senior UN Human Rights Official's Resignation

➤ Moscow Accuses Swiss Diplomats of "Blackmail" and Says it Will Closely Monitor Anti-Russian Tendencies in Switzerland's Action as A Host Country for Many UN Organizations

With our gratitude and best wishes for the holidays.
