Swisscontact est une organisation de développement indépendante à but non lucratif créée en 1959 par des représentants du secteur privé et de la société civile suisse. Notre travail de développement est axé sur un développement économique durable, mené par le secteur privé et sur l'amélioration de la qualité de vie pour tous dans les pays en développement et émergents.
