A CIBJO (World Jewellery Confederation) delegation headed by president Gaetano Cavalieri met recently in Geneva with United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon at the 2007 session of the Economic and Social Council. Moon and the CIBJO delegates discussed the jewelry industry’s efforts to eradicate poverty and increase awareness of environmental issues. “We were all inspired by [Moon’s] interest and his resolve to help bring the principles of the United Nations to our industry,” Cavalieri said.
