Switzerland/ 3.4 International cultural co-operation  

3.4.1 Overview of main structures and trends

International cultural cooperation on all levels is crucial for Switzerland. The Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, Pro Helvetia, the cantons and cities play an important role in international cooperation.

The work of Pro Helvetia is based on the principle that Swiss foreign policy is not only about one-way relations with countries abroad, but about developing awareness of Swiss culture within third countries, and vice-versa.
