Geneva, which has been described as the smallest major city in the world, combines sophistication, beauty, and old world charm. With over 200 international governmental and non-governmental organizations, Geneva is uniquely suited to host a study abroad program of this nature. In addition to being the European headquarters for the United Nations, the city is the home of the headquarters for the World Trade Organization, the International Labor Organization, the World Health Organization, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, the International Commission of Jurists, the International Committee of the Red Cross, the World Intellectual Property Organization and many more.
