ADVISORY GROUPS
There are two groups of experts who support the work of the General Secretariat in a specific and ongoing manner: the Scientific Advisory Committee and the Communication Advisory Council. They both offer valuable help when discussing subjects that fall into their area of expertise, the Scientific Committee for research questions and the Communication Council for media strategy and PR work. They convene usually once per year and volunteer ideas and suggestions on how the work of The Geneva Association could be improved and also act as a sounding board for new initiatives.
