The UNF is pleased to announce the arrival of His Excellency Carlos Edmilson MARQUES VIEIRA, Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Guinea Bissau in France, to UNESCO, OIF and the Vatican.

His Excellency the Ambassador of Guinea Bissau in France has exceptional experience of the African continent, as he was also Ambassador to the African Union for a long time. His knowledge of the challenges of collaboration between Africa and other continents will perfectly complement the experience and influence that the UNF has on the African continent.
For more than 20 years, Carlos Edmilson MARQUES VIEIRA and Christophe Giovannetti, President of the UNF have always collaborated for the defense of peace, and economic and sustainable development in Africa.

Advice, discussions, preventive actions, aid operations, the UNF, strong in its convictions and skills and its networks, can, thanks to its presence worldwide and the quality of its ambassadors, open a space for negotiations for governments that wish to provide solutions to protect populations and improve the quality of life for everyone.


At its session from August 30 to September 10, 2021, the Committee in charge of Non-Governmental Organizations unanimously recommended to the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) to grant Special Consultative Status to the Union Nations Federation (UNF ). This recommendation was approved a few weeks later in the ECOSOC plenary, also unanimously.
Out of 651 NGOs studied by the Committee during its session, only 264 were accepted to benefit from Consultative Status. To date, only 5,450 NGOs worldwide enjoy official status with this important body, of which 4,341 have so-called “Special” status. The Special Consultative Status, granted to the UNF is reserved, according to the publication of the Committee’s decisions, “for NGOs working in a specific field and authorizes them to submit written communications and petitions to ECOSOC.”
The ECOSOC Status, the most official and formal granted status to NGOs by the United Nations – because it is granted by the Member States themselves within the framework of the work of one of its main organs -, is not only recognized by all the entities and programs, but it also opens the door for the UNF to interact with governments in formal meetings, speaking out and advocating for causes close to their hearts. This will be the case when the UNF wants to join global civil society engaged in debates and actions on the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals, for example.
Another important area for the UNF will be that of human rights, supported by the Human Rights Council and its subsidiary bodies, whose meetings are held throughout the year in Geneva and organized by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights.
The importance of the status acquired by the UNF should be all the more underlined since, since 2006, the Human Rights Council has been a subsidiary organ of the United Nations General Assembly.
UNF President Christophe Giovannetti is pleased to announce that he is already in the process of developing an action plan that will position the NGO up to the challenges that await it, namely to contribute to actions and reflections on the major current problems of humanity: reducing inequalities, combating poverty and climate change, dealing with migration and delicate situations of refugees, working to promote access to decent work , make education and health accessible to all, fight against corruption and for peace.
To this end, a strategic committee will be created in December 2021 to define the orientations and projects for the next four years.
We are also pleased to announce the arrival of Madame Corinne Lepage, famous Lawyer, former Minister of the Environment of France, President of the Universal Declaration of Humanity Rights (DDHU) of which the UNF is a signatory and who will be able, with the support of the UNF, to sensitize member states to the imperative need to enforce this text.


Invited by Bernard Chevalier, one of the Commissioners of the Napoleon Exhibition, Christophe Giovannetti, President of the UNF and Carole Berte, Administrative Director of the UNF wanted to shed special light on this exhibition and invite as many people as possible to attend this exhibition.
This exhibition organized on the occasion of the bicentenary of the death of Napoleon Bonaparte is aimed at the general public. The man is presented there in what he has most popular, that is to say famous, his life in what it has most romantic, his work in what it has most exceptional, fresco dazzling of a founding era of modern France.

In addition to evoking the rise, heyday and decline of the most famous emperor, this exhibition reveals a man whose personality lives up to his worldwide reputation. Flamboyant, the life of Napoleon is a spectacle in itself. This event intends to be, in its form, a story, of course, but also a staging backed by the history of France. We also discover that Napoleon is at the origin of most of the institutions of our Republic, and that he himself is, through his life, the incarnation of egalitarianism carried by the French Revolution.
The exhibition is structured around nine parts : the apprenticeship years at the military college of Brienne ; the campaigns of Italy (1796) and Egypt (1799) ; the coup d’état of 18 Brumaire and the Consulate ; the advent of the Empire ; Intimate Napoleon, his wives, Joséphine then Marie-Louise, his son, the King of Rome ; Napoleon, the warlord ; Napoleon and Europe, at the head of which he places his sisters and brothers ; the decline of the Empire, illustrated by two military failures, the Spanish Campaign (1808) and the Russian Campaign (1812) ; the Hundred Days and its final fall after the Battle of Waterloo..
The exhibition uses masterpieces from the main national collections such as the Louvre, the Army’s museums in Salon-de-Provence, Versailles, Malmaison,

Fontainebleau, Mobilier national, the Fondation Napoléon, the Banque de France, the Senate, the Legion of Honor museum as well as those of the Conservatory of Arts and Crafts, the Eckmühl room in Auxerre, the museum of sedentary gunners in Lille and the Orleans Museum for Biodiversity and the Environment.
Several atmospheric spaces evoke the arts and court life at this time, which only lasted about fifteen years ; first as a result of the Egyptian campaign, which marked the spirits so strongly, are presented furniture and works of art created in the Egyptian style, while a living room shows the evolution of the style during the heyday of the Empire. The monumental evocation of a throne room parallels a table set with the richest productions of the Empire style. These spaces are completed by magnificent court clothes, luxury weapons, decorations, Sèvres porcelain, pieces of goldsmith’s work, and even a monumental car ordered for his marriage to Marie-Louise as well as the most modest. funeral chariot used for his funeral in Saint Helena. There are also personal items that belonged to him as well as the spectacular country tent furnished with its original furniture ; war will not be absent from this evocation with a cannon, an ammunition box and several mannequins both on foot and on horseback. Let us not forget the many sculptures that will accompany the paintings made by the greatest painters of the time such as David, Gros or Gérard.
Organized by the Réunion des Musées Nationaux, it is presented at the Grande Halle de la Villette until December 26, 2021 and prepared by several curators including Bernard Chevallier, former director of the National Museum of Chateau of Malmaison and Bois-Préau.

Advice, discussions, preventive actions, fundraising, the UNF, strong in its convictions and skills can, thanks to its presence in the world and the quality of its ambassadors, open a space for negotiations for governments who wish to provide solutions to protect populations and improve the quality of life for everyone.


After France, Switzerland, Gabon, Tanzania, the Union of the Comoros, Morocco, and Guinea, Christophe Giovannetti, President of the UNF, is pleased to announce the opening of an office in Canada , in the province of Quebec.
This new UNF office is located on Rue Pollack, a famous street in Quebec, and is headed by Luc Harvey, B.A, a Quebec businessman and politician. In the 2006 federal election, he was elected Conservative MP for the district of Louis-Hébert in Quebec City. He was also the leader of the Conservative Party of Quebec.
This office will centralize all the actions of the UNF planned in Canada and in particular on environmental law and human rights. This office in Canada has become evident since the development of our activities with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations. This presence on the North American continent is therefore a fair extension of our activities, indicated Christophe Giovannetti, President of the UNF.
