UNCTAD is established by the United Nations General Assembly in ............ and it has its headquarters at ............
1964—Geneva
The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) was established in 1964 by the United Nations General Assembly as a permanent intergovernmental body. It grew out of the first UN conference on trade and development held in Geneva in 1964, convened because developing countries felt that the GATT framework did not address their trade and development problems.
UNCTAD's secretariat and headquarters are located in Geneva, Switzerland, at the Palais des Nations. Its work covers trade, investment, technology and development issues of developing economies, and it publishes reports such as the World Investment Report and the Trade and Development Report.
The pairings with 1965 are wrong on the year, since the General Assembly resolution creating UNCTAD dates from December 1964. New York is the seat of the UN General Assembly itself, not of UNCTAD, and Paris hosts bodies such as UNESCO and the OECD, not UNCTAD.
1964—Geneva option is correct.
