On the programme

  • speech by the authorities, musical events and testimonies;
  • aperitif and informal meeting with the authorities;
  • public service information stands.

To welcome new arrivals and accompany them as they settle in, the City of Geneva has also developed a web series with the actress, Brigitte Rosset.
