CERN celebrates 60 years of science for peace

Geneva, 18 March 2014. CERN is celebrating 60 years of science for peace in 2014, with events at the Organization's Geneva laboratory and in its Members States. Festivities will focus on two key events. The first is on 1 July at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris, where the Organization's 12 founding members established the CERN Convention on 1 July 1953. The second marks CERN's 60th birthday, 29 September, the date on which the Convention was ratified 60 years ago and the Organization formally came into existence. It will be celebrated in Geneva. CERN's membership has now grown to 21 states, with many countries from beyond Europe also taking part.
