European Electric Car Rally Finishing Phase at United Nations for 1.5 Degrees
Europe’s largest electric vehicle rally passes through Geneva as a part of its finishing phases in Switzerland on the Place des Nations on 17 June 2016, after travelling 1,300km from Bremerhaven, Germany.
There will be an opportunity for an aerial photograph of the more than 70 teams of electric cars participating in the rally in the formation of 1.5 degrees Celsius (hashtag: #1o5C), the goal of limiting global warming at the centre of the new United Nations Paris Agreement on climate change. The 1.5 degrees symbol will be formed on the Place des Nations, in front of the United Nations at Geneva. Organisers will be facilitating access to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) building for the purpose of the aerial photograph. In addition, a 4.5m x 4.5m black cube will be installed on the Place des Nations symbolising the emission avoided by each car participating in the rally.
The occasion will be marked by statements from United Nations representatives, representatives from the electric vehicle rally (World Advanced Vehicle Expedition), and of the State of Geneva.

Nezaposlenost, loš kvalitet javnih usluga, korupcija te nepovoljno poslovno okruženje samo su neki od brojnih izazova sa kojima se Bosna i Hercegovina suočava. Ipak, u posljednjih nekoliko godina, odgovorniji pristup jednog broja lokalnih vlasti doveo je do značajnog poboljšanja kvalitete života stanovništva.
Napredak je dobrim dijelom ostvaren kroz projekat Lokalni integrisani razvoj, inicijativu koju u vrijednosti od 12 miliona KM finansira Evropska unija a realizuje Razvojni program Ujedinjenih nacija (UNDP) u saradnji sa 21 lokalnom zajednicom. Rezultati su vidljivi kroz nova radna mjesta, efikasniji rad lokalne samouprave, te kvalitetniju komunalnu infrastrukturu.

Sarafand is a bustling fishing port in Lebanon with over 350 boats coming and going daily. 1,000 fishermen from nearby villages depend on the port market to provide for their families. Sarafand also hosts Syrian refugees. Both Lebanese and Syrians rely on the fishing port for income and for affordable, nutritious, protein-rich food.
With UK support, we helped the fishermen to renovate their market, which was falling apart. They now have more space & modern ice-storage to keep their catch fresh longer.
