Marie d'Auchamp - Geneva – Coordinator Francophone Regions

Marie is a Human Rights lawyer who has worked with several Human Rights NGOs in Geneva. Lately, she has specialised in advocacy for migrants rights at the international level and she started as December 18 Geneva Liaison Officer in March 2006. She joined Radio 1812 to network with migrant groups and radio professionals from the francophone parts of the world and make sure that Migrants voices are heard on 18 December!

Making migrants voices heard is the common thread throughout the activities that will take place during 18th December, International Migrants Day. And this is precisely what is at the heart of Radio 1812: a global radio event that celebrates International Migrants Day.

We hope to make this experience pleasant and exciting for you all, so here is a quick overview of what you will find on this site and how you can take part:
