Call for donations
GISA and the students of IHEID stand in solidarity with the earthquake victims in Syria and Turkey. Donating is the most helpful way to express solidarity and empathy which is why we wish to facilitate donations to support the NGOs working on the ground as even 1 CHF/EURO goes a long way.
Donation links will be shared on our website, if you know more organisations students, please send them to use by email and they will be added to our website.
