AW: [governance] Civil Society Members in Geneva

[George Sadowsky]

Marilia and Anriette,

I am on the latest version of the Tuesday 
afternoon session also, and i've just arrived in 
Geneva.  I am staying at the Hotel Cornavin.

May I join the group for dinner Monday evening? 
If so, just let me know when and where you will 
be meeting.

I probably will be at WHO and/or UNCTAD tomorrow, but at CSTD Tuesday.

Regards,

George
