Why Geneva

A Global Health Hub

Geneva is recognized today as the international capital of health.

  • Seat of the World Health Organization (WHO) and host of the World Health Assembly (WHA) bringing together the health ministers of 194 member states each year in May.
  • Home to more than 300 governmental and non-governmental organizations active in the public health sector.
  • Health Valley: a unique concentration of international organizations, health establishments, academic institutions, major companies and start-ups specialized in life sciences, medical technologies, biotechnologies, and innovative engineering.
  • Diplomatic Hub: Geneva serves as a global diplomatic hub where representatives from various countries come together to discuss and negotiate health policies, agreements, and responses to global health challenges.
  • Humanitarian Affairs: Geneva is a hub for key humanitarian organizations (e.g. ICRC, IFRC, UNHCR, IOM, OCHA), making it a key player in responding to health crises and providing healthcare in disaster-stricken regions.

Let’s build a new multilateral dialogue based on scientific evidence and citizen engagement.
