Founded in 1924, the Foundation of the International School of Geneva, commonly known as Ecolint, educates 4,500 students aged 3 to 18, representing more than 130 nationalities. Each of our eight schools is dedicated to the development of seven global competences, which prepare students for the future: we develop lifelong learning, autonomy, the ability to interact with the world and with others in harmony with available resources, in order to develop transdisciplinary and multilingual thinking. In this way, we carry out our mission, which is to educate students to be citizens of the world with the ability and courage to create together a just and joyful tomorrow. Ecolint is founded on strong humanitarian values and is proud of its long history of educational innovation, including the creation of the United Nations system model and the International Baccalaureate. We have around 1,250 employees representing more than 60 nationalities, united in a single core of dynamic professionals committed to our mission.
The Campus des Nations is the newest campus of the Foundation of the International School of Geneva. Located in the heart of Geneva's international district, the campus has quickly established itself as a pioneering school of education, committed to putting student learning at the centre of everything it does. Campus des Nations is proud to be a global International Baccalaureate school. Our programmes are based on the IB ‘learner profile’, a set of ideals that inspire, motivate and focus the work of the school and help students to become more thoughtful, moral, cultured and caring. Promoting these qualities is at the heart of everything we do.
