In these areas, the Geneva Academy makes a specific contribution to policy development and debate, in government and among scholars and practitioners.
Jointly established by the Faculty of Law of the University of Geneva and the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, the Geneva Academy is a cosmopolitan community located in the heart of Geneva, an international city and humanitarian hub.
