Few cities have as rich a history as Geneva in the field of international cooperation. At the end of the 19th century, with the creation of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), Geneva became the first center of multilateral diplomacy and remains, even today, its most active platform.
We invite you to discover this history through images from the archives of the international organizations based in Geneva.

Teaser
This 27 October, on the occasion of UNESCO's World Day for Audiovisual Heritage, the geneveMonde.ch platform, will be launched. A unique editorial initiative, never realized before: telling the story of international Geneva with the help of RTS archives, organizations present in Geneva, and especially with documents from the public. It is thus a new form of storytelling that will take shape throughout publications in a participatory dynamic. The ambition of geneveMonde.ch, composed of two journalists and a historian, is to identify all those moments of history that allow a better understanding of the "world city" that is Geneva and to contribute to opening it up in the eyes of the general public. This shared history of international Geneva, at the crossroads of history, memory, and remembrance, is launched under the aegis of the FONSART (Foundation for the safeguard and valorization of the audiovisual heritage of the RTS).
