Nur wenige Städte haben eine so reiche Geschichte im Bereich der internationalen Zusammenarbeit wie Genf. Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts, mit der Gründung des Internationalen Komitees vom Roten Kreuz (IKRK), wurde Genf zum ersten Zentrum der multilateralen Diplomatie und ist auch heute noch deren aktivste Plattform.
