Abstract
Since 1864, Geneva has played an important role in international affairs in modern history. The city is also famous for the set of rules known as the “Geneva Conventions.” It is also the birthplace of Henri Dunant, the co-founder of Red Cross, who received the first Nobel Peace Prize in 1901. Dunant played a significant role in the First Geneva Convention, as he was in charge of accommodating the attendees.
