Supported by the UNODC, the World Border Security Congress is delighted to offer the opportunity for a limited number of delegates to gain an insight and introduction to the United Nations Organization and learn how the Vienna-based offices are working for the Sustainable Development Goals.
Following a guided tour of the United Nations building, the UNODC will provide an overview of some of their key border security and management programmes run from their offices in Vienna, including the new Passenger and Cargo Control Programme (PCCP) and Narcotics Lab Programme.
The tour takes in the history and architecture of the Vienna International Centre, and uses show & tell to explain the work that goes on. Visitors will usually have a chance to see one of the conference rooms where international negotiations take place, and can enjoy some of the fine artworks on display, such as an original Hundertwasser tapestry. A highlight for many visitors is a real moonrock on loan to the UN in Vienna from NASA.
The United Nations in Vienna is home to members of the UN family working on many aspects of peace and security, human rights and development. They seek to use atoms for peace and development, to reduce poverty through inclusive and sustainable industrial development, to ban nuclear testing, to bring the benefits of the peaceful uses of outer space to every part of the world and to make the world safer from drugs, crime and terrorism.
You will have to pass a security check. Please do not forget to bring a valid official identification document (national ID card, passport or driving license; a copy or digital version of the ID is not acceptable).
