Chair of Transports Publics Genevois
In 2024 I had the pleasure of participating in the 15th annual conference organized by the Geneva Institute for Leadership & Public Policy (GILPP). As past Chair of the tpg, the Geneva public transportation company, I made a presentation on the importance of public transportation for climate goals, for sustainable mobility, and for resilience in cities. I attended the conference for the full three days, and I was very impressed with the high level of speakers and the very interesting presentations on a wide variety of subjects, all emphasizing the need to find concrete solutions to improve the lives of people worldwide.

Christopher Leow
Former Member of Parliament Romania (MP & Secretary of State)
GILPP Conference is an excellent place of networking for leaders, a place to grow in knowledge and understanding of how important is for people with Christian values to be involved in governing or influence governing, to be the salt and light the world needs to preserve, to advance in a healthier way.
The topics usually cover much needed issues like good governance, human trafficking, fighting corruption, policy making, economics, education, etc. I was enriched by everything I heard and by meeting wonderful, dedicated people from all over the world.

The 2024 GILPP Conference bought together an impressive range of thinkers, practitioners and leaders from around the globe. There was a strong desire amongst the participants to be part of creating a positive difference in their spheres of influence. It was an honor to be amongst them and share on ways we can build a flourishing world.
