Former President John Agyekum Kufuor left Accra on Friday night for a three-day visit to Geneva, Switzerland, to attend the Governing Council meeting of Interpeace, the world-wide peace organisation backed by the United Nations.
President Kufuor, who is the first African chairman of the Interpeace Council, will participate in the Partners Forum session - during which he will meet with donors and supporters of the organisation.
A statement issued in Accra and signed by Mr Frank Agyekum, Spokesperson Office of Former President Kufuor, said he would brief the media on his stewardship of the organisation in the past year and highlight major activities undertaken in the 17 countries that they operated in through Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Europe.
While in Geneva, President Kufuor would give a lecture on: "Leadership for Africa's Tomorrow," at the famous Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, the prestigious pioneering institute in the training of diplomats, which dates back to the 1920's and in the founding of the League of Nations later transformed into the United Nations.
He will be away for about a week.
