Media accreditation

Geneva-based correspondents already accredited to the UN

Correspondents who already hold media accreditation from UNOG will receive a specific badge directly from the UNOG press office that they will have to carry (on top of their usual UN badge) to have access to areas open to the media.

For all other correspondents

To obtain accreditation for the Conference, correspondents should complete an Accreditation Form, to be sent by email ([email protected]), fax (+4122/799 7397) or by post (addressed to ILO, Department of Communication and Public Information, 4 route des Morillons, 1211 Geneva 22, Switzerland).

Journalists should collect their badges upon their arrival at the Accreditation Pavillion located at the entrance to the main building of the ILO, 4 route des Morillons (NOT at the Palais des Nations) on presentation of a valid identity card or passport (with photo), a valid professional press card and a letter of assignment from the Editor-in-Chief of the media concerned.. The badges also give access to a specific shuttle bus for visitors and media running between the ILO building (R3 South) and the Palais des Nations where the Conference takes place.
