About
Founded in 2019, the Swiss Diplomacy Student Association (SDSA) is a committed student association that brings together students passionate about international relations, diplomacy, and contemporary global issues. Born from the desire to make diplomacy more accessible and practical, the SDSA has gradually established itself as a platform for exchange, training, and networking between the academic and professional worlds.
Joining the SDSA means committing to learning, debating, and building a unique network at the heart of the diplomatic world.
Based in Geneva, with an active network also in Lausanne, Bern and Zurich, the SDSA reflects the linguistic, cultural, and academic diversity of Switzerland. This multi-site presence allows the association to reach a broad audience and build bridges between different academic and professional institutions.
The SDSA is structured around four fundamental objectives.
