The premises of the Institute are spread across three groups of buildings. In the central buildings are located the administrative structures, the restaurant, a meeting room and a first amphitheatre. Around the second amphitheater  are located several offices, 2 meeting room for 30 people. A third building constructed in 2011 according to the most modern energy saving criteria is exclusively dedicated to housing. A dining room, public rest rooms and showers are also available there. The villa Menasina (4)  is located about 500 meters from the central buildings. It is the historic site, where the first meetings were held in the sixties. Today it is in general reserved for the organizers and their family.

Lodging

The Institute housing facilities on site include 27 double rooms (with single occupancy due to COVID), a studio and a villa (for 2-6 persons). Three rooms are fully accessible to persons with reduced mobility.

Participants are often lodged in the village of Cargèse, in studios to 3 bedrooms apartments. A 20 minutes walk is required to reach the Institute from the village, it is therefore necessary to provide proper footwear and a flashlight for night returns.
