World Values Day is a global annual campaign that shines a spotlight on the importance of values in our lives. Every October, people and organisations around the world come together to explore how our values shape the choices we make and the world we create.

The theme for World Values Day 2026 is Values & Volunteering.

Volunteering is one of the most visible ways we bring our values to life. Whether we contribute our time, skills, ideas, attention or simply our willingness to help, our values move from something we believe into something we do.

This October, there are three ways to take part in World Values Day at the Geneva Graduate Institute. Join one, two or all three.
