What can trade negotiators learn from their counterparts working on international peace? Geneva is a global centre for trade negotiations, but it is also a key node in the world of humanitarian diplomacy and peace negotiations. This informal fireside chat session brings two experienced negotiators, one from each of these two worlds together for a wide-ranging exchange of experiences, ideas and practices.

Speakers:

• Hilda Al-Hinai, Secretary General, Arab-Swiss Chamber of Commerce
• David Lanz, Deputy Director for Mediation Support and Policy, Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue
• Alan W. Wolff, Distinguished Visiting Fellow, Peterson Institute for International Economics
