Our partnerships are at the core of what we do. Over the years we have built a rich network of collaborating institutions that contribute to our achievements. We have three strategic humanitarian partners. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), Médecins Sans Frontières and the Swiss Confederation of International Development. We work with these key partners to shape our courses and ensure our research is pertinent to their needs.

We also work alongside many other partners through our courses and research. A full list can be found below.

“For the past 20 years, the Geneva Centre of Humanitarian Studies has been a partner to the ICRC – testing our assumptions, pushing us to think out of the box, and ultimately helping to ensure the relevance and effectiveness of humanitarian action in an increasingly complex, challenging humanitarian environment”.

Yves Daccord, Former Director-General of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC)
