What CARE International does in Switzerland
Our office in Geneva hosts part of CARE International’s Secretariat. The Secretariat is a small team dedicated to supporting the advancement of CARE’s joint global priorities and interests.
It is overseen by the Executive Committee and funded by our Members to:
- Convene global governance, policy, and measure, and report on accountability
- Help to define and advance shared strategic priorities
- Support coordination of global communications and advocacy
- Represent CARE International at the United Nations, the European Union, and other global forums.
In Geneva, our colleagues represent the Confederation in the UN, coordinate humanitarian communications, and run the Secretariat’s administrative functions.
Other Secretariat staff members are based mainly in Brussels, London, and New York, with more colleagues positioned in other locations around the world.
