NGOs in Geneva

The existence of all major international organizations in Geneva has also made the city the essential for global NGOs working within the international organization system. As a result, most major NGOs working across fields such as trade and development, health, human rights, environment, and education, are present in Geneva.

Geneva, or its vicinity, also serves as the headquarters of major international NGOs, in particular the World Economic Forum, World Wide Fund for Nature, Terre des Hommes, and the World Conservation Union (to name but a few). Major foundations and funds are also established in Geneva, such as the Aga Khan Foundation and the Global Fund.
