Ramaphosa will also engage fellow leaders on the sidelines to lobby support for SA to win a non-permanent seat at the UN Security council..

President Cyril Ramaphosa has just arrived in Geneva, Switzerland to co-chair the Global Commission on future of work – a body of the International Labour Organisation. He’s expected to hold bilateral talks with the ILO Director General, Guy Reyder before meeting with his co-chair, Swedish Prime Minister Stefen Lofven this afternoon.

The commission will focus on the world’s response to the 4th industrial revolution amid concerns of job losses.

 President Cyril Ramaphosa heads to Geneva, Switzerland tomorrow where he’ll kick off his duties as co-chair of the Global commission on the future of work. President Ramaphosa was appointed earlier this month to co-chair the commission which was established #ILO #sabcnews

It was on this day in 2004 when South Africa won the 2010 FIFA World Cup bid in Zurich here in Switzerland, and today President Cyril Ramaphosa is in Geneva seeking to find solutions that will help curb high rate of unemployment in the world.

He’ll also engage fellow leaders on the sidelines during the two days to lobby support for South Africa to win a non permanent seat at the UN Security council.
