The primary form of currency in all of Switzerland is the Swiss Franc with both bills and coins. Geneva has so many international companies present that many people think that the Euro is accepted but officially it is not. There are currency exchange offices and banks on every corner that will exchange any currency into Swiss Franc. On the paper bills is a reference to the four languages spoken in Switzerland; French, Italian, Swiss German, and Romanche. Switzerland is part of the European community but not the European Union that uses the Euro.

Geneva, Switzerland has a rich history in the European community. From the old town with its influence on the Protestant Reformation and the famous pot of soup poured on Savoyard troops trying to sneak into the walled city at night, Geneva has much to offer to visitors in the city. The International Red Cross Museum and Headquarters is a fascinating journey through the history and importance of the Red Cross in the international community. The United Nations Headquarters and offices were founded here. The building is open for tours. The beauty of the city with its infamous Jet d' Eau (Water Jet) is a mystery to engineers as it is powered by the natural currents from Lake Geneva (Lac Leman). Many representatives have come to Geneva to learn how they might build such a jet in their cities. It is turned off during the winter as it splashes on the lake roads and turns to ice. Boat trips can be taken up and down Lake Geneva with some offering meals. But one of the best things about Geneva is its beauty. The serenity the city brings to its residents and guests is felt walking through the many parks filled with flowers or the quaint sidewalk cafes. Geneva has it all, just enough of the old mixed with the new to make it a wonderful city to visit.

First off, there is no "Geneva Convention". The Geneva Conventions (plural) are a series of international treaties. Most deal with the proper conduct of warfare (i.e. the "rules of war"), but there are others which deal with economic issues. You need to be much more specific as to which Convention you are referring to.

Also, the link above only show some of the Geneva Conventions on warfare, but not all of them.

Geneva had already embraced the Reformation before Calvin first came there in 1536, though it appears this was more outward than inward, particularly on the part of the Aristocratic Leadership of the Councils, such as Ami Perrin. Calvin sought to implement what he considered Scripturally based reforms, but in hindsight, he moved too far too fast, and both he and Farel were evicted, at which time, Calvin went to minister in Strasbourg to a congregation of French refugees. When Roman Catholic Cardinal Sadoleto wrote to Geneva in 1539 inviting them to return to the Roman church, none was willing or able to give a reply. Calvin was therefore sought, his polemic abilities being widely known and greatly appreciated. It was Ami Perrin himself who led the gracious invitation to bring Calvin back to Geneva. Thus, in 1541, Calvin returns with pomp and fanfare to stay at Geneva until his death in 1564. During this second stay in Geneva, a more moderately tempered Calvin brought the city to be the shining star and symbolism of the Reformation. He faithfully expounded the Word of God several times a week, he established free and illustrious public education, the morals of the city were raised so much that John Knox called the city, "the most perfect school of Christ since the apostles." Refugees from all over Europe, notably France, England and Scotland, flocked to the city for it's open and amiable protection of all such persecuted Christians. The remarkable thing is that Calvin was not on any of the councils, nor held any position of elected leadership, and was not even a citizen until a couple years before his death! All of these changes were affected by his invincible constancy in pursuit of the glory of God through the Scriptures alone. From Geneva, Calvinism, both doctrinally and practically spread throughout Europe as refugees returned to their native lands and sought to implement the beautiful Christianity they had experienced at Geneva.
