Geneva room rents are in range of 800 to 1000, sorry but good luck.

if outside Geneva, you might find something at 700

Wanjiku, Dave is right. Nevertheless, your best chance of finding a room you can afford, is to check within the WTO, or to ask for help from those at the WTO who arranged your intership. Some of the international organizations have internal intranets, and boards where housing is advertised. There, you are more likely to find housing at a price and in a location that is most suitable for you.

Here is one of several housing ads at the CERN member website. It is in Ferney, which is not a bad location if you will be going to the WTO. There are a few others in that price level at the CERN site:

Small studio to rent in Ferney-Voltaire (19m2). Fully independent.

Fully refurbished, therefore looking for someone careful.

With Kitchennette, bathroom and small bedroom part.

Car park for a car and locked garage for bikes.

Located in the center of Ferney-Voltaire (France).

Near Bus F and Y and all shopping facilities.
20 minutes to the UN and 5 minutes to the airport.

800 CHF a month all bills included.
Available from beginning of September

and here is another one in Meyrin, on the swiss side:

750 chf per month all charges included available September 1st

These and many similar others are from the CERN website. They are in locations most appropriate for those working at CERN. I am sure the same would apply to the WTO.
