International Hospital Federation

About

Established in 1929, the IHF is a global not-for-profit, non-governmental membership organization. Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, the IHF is the global voice of hospitals and health systems. The IHF provides its members with a platform for knowledge exchange and networking with different actors in the health sector, to improve the standard, quality, and level of service delivery. Powered by the IHF, the Geneva Sustainability Centre was established in 2022 to drive the healthcare sector’s transition to environmentally sustainable, resilient, and low-carbon service delivery. Through its learning programme, tools and resources, and high impact partnerships, it supports hospital and healthcare leaders to develop essential competencies to become climate leaders for their communities, and to drive this sustainable transformation at leadership, management, and institutional levels.
