Background

The Geneva Federation for Cooperation unveiled its 2025 international solidarity barometer in mid-October 2026. It measures the commitment of Geneva's public authorities to international cooperation.

The key points

Geneva's public authorities spent 40 million francs on international solidarity, or 42 francs per inhabitant. Their commitment is rising in value but falling as a percentage of their revenue.

According to the Tribune de Genève, the results are mixed. The nominal increase hides a less favourable picture in relative terms. The ICRC is among the recipients of public aid.

Key figures

  • Commitment of Geneva's public authorities: 40 million francs.
