The American International Club of Geneva is delighted to host a speaker's luncheon featuring

Dr. David Chikvaidze, Vice President of Swiss Forum on International Affairs (FSPI) and former Chief of Staff to five Directors-General of the UN office at Geneva (UNOG). 

 Dr. Chikvaidze will give a presentation on the very important and topical subject of "Managing a Change of Eras in an Age of Belligerent Uncertainty".

Dr. Chikvaidze draws a stark picture of a world at a crossroads: the once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon of a change of eras happening against the backdrop of three decades of a disastrous post-Soviet transition, increasingly complex, interlocking, existential challenges, of the AI gamechanger, of a breakdown in multilateral thought and practice among the world’s most powerful nations with dysfunction in the UN Security Council, a re-evaluation of established reference points, and of war and threat of war returning as the tool of choice, amid belligerent uncertainty, virtually sidelining diplomacy. The stakes are historic.
