Housing

The Housing situation in Geneva is VERY challenging.

We suggest you have a look at CAGI

  • Centre Accueil Genève International (CAGI) or Geneva Welcome Centre is a secure institution that provides all sorts of information and assistance, free of charge, for newcomers to Geneva. The intention is to help provide a smooth transition for international people moving to Geneva.
  • On their housing webpage you put the criteria for the type of accommodation you are looking for, and then you receive the adds which correspond to your demand via email shortly after,each time a new accommodation add fits your search criteria, you receive a new email.
  • Note  that CAGI offers may have a comment stating that ‘this flat is a GIA friendly flat’, meaning that a former intern has had a good experience living there previously…Not a negligible ‘tag’!
