About the Nordic International Folk High School
The Nordic International Folk High School (NIFH) was established jointly by the Workers’ Educational Association and the trade union movements in the Nordic countries. Its aim is to offer studies in trade union and political issues at the Nordic and the international level. This is mainly covered by the two primary courses: The Geneva School and the Nordic School. The courses are open to everyone but are mainly targeted at young, active members who are interested in international co-operation and who have worked with this issue at the union or political level in the Nordic trade union movements.
Our courses
The Geneva School
The Geneva School gives the participants a unique opportunity to meet people from workers’ organisations from all parts of the world at the International Labour Conference (ILC) of the International Labour Organisation (ILO) in Geneva.
The Nordic School
The Nordic School offers commissioned education which provides the participants with knowledge of the Nordic model and the tools to translate this knowledge into practical policies.
