History

The past: Once upon a time...

IFYE, the "International Farm Youth Exchange" was founded in the US after World War 2. The main goal was to bring together the nations of the world by organizing an exchange specifically for people with agricultural background, so that they learn how farming works in different countries. IFYE-Swiss was founded in 1954 and makes sure that our Swiss participants also get to broaden their horizon by taking part in this exchange. IFYE-Swiss has organized well over 700 exchanges to countries all over the world.

And today? IFYE's got the right thing for you!

US, South Korea, Finland, Austria, England...

Every year, we organize exchanges for about 20 participants to countries in five continents, and just as many IFYEs from the world take part in the Swiss experience!
