A little bit about Yuri

I joined the UN/CEFACT Secretariat in July 2015 as an Associate Economic Affairs Officer. My tasks include providing support to the Bureau and organization of the Forum that will take place in Marseille in November 2015.

Previously, I worked for the UN Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) in the area of chemicals management. Over my six years at UNITAR, I managed some 20 projects in different regions. I also coordinated e-learning courses and developed training materials for the programme. Prior to UNITAR, I worked for an NGO supporting human rights defenders around the world.
