L'oeil de la Genève Internationale

2025 marks the 50th anniversary of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). In the spirit of World Wildlife Day and to emphasize the urgent need to protect nature against biodiversity loss, climate change, and pollution, the International Geneva website invites the CITES Secretariat and UNDP to select their Photo of the Week. Join us each week until December 2025 as we unveil their chosen image from Magnum's powerful photographic collection, alongside their ongoing efforts to safeguard our planet.
