First International Cooperation Forum Switzerland

What does effective international cooperation look like in an age of continuing climate change? At the International Cooperation Forum Switzerland – which will take place in a hybrid format from 31 March to 1 April 2022 in Geneva – experts from the fields of academia, business, politics and civil society will be searching for ways out of the climate crisis. Switzerland is looking to strengthen international cooperation and help find solutions to current challenges. The IC Forum will be hosted by President of the Swiss Confederation Ignazio Cassis.

The impact of climate change on peace and security is profound. Swiss expertise in modern technology can sustainably improve the living conditions of millions of people in areas such as climate change mitigation, agricultural engineering, healthcare, disaster resilience and construction.

Ignazio Cassis, President of the Swiss Confederation

We want to harness our collective intelligence and exploit synergies. We're also looking for new ways to cooperate.
