What is the relationship between UNOG and other United Nations entities in Geneva?

The United Nations family comprises a large number of intergovernmental organizations, specialized agencies, programmes, funds, offices and research institutes as well as related organizations. Many of these organizations have a presence in Geneva. 

UNOG is a member of this wider United Nations family in Geneva and cooperates closely with many of the United Nations entities present here, including providing administrative and conference services support. However, members of the United Nations family in Geneva are autonomous bodies. They have their governing bodies, budgets and secretariats.
