What we
do

As a nonprofit organization, we’re working towards developing Switzerland as a society – and we’ve been doing it since 2012. From the very beginning, education, the reconciliation of work and family life have been important to us. Today, we are focusing on the latter with our taskforce4women. This means that we show our true colors, motivate, and reward talented people. We identify challenges, critically scrutinize, and highlight grievances. We work on sustainable ideas for reform, sometimes by ourselves but more often as part of a team with selected partners. And we assume responsibility by taking a seat at the table, initiating projects, and bringing them to life. In fact, we never stand still. That’s why our motto is: better in the thick of it than lagging behind. Below you can see our commitment in recent years at a glance.

Rock & Randale – Wie es mit Mann und Frau klappen kann

Wir wollen Lust machen auf Veränderung – in der Gesellschaft und bei uns selber. Wir wollen anstossen, und wir wollen ein bisschen am Rockzipfel der Geschichte zerren. Darum fragen wir bei schlauen Menschen nach, wie ein Leben von Mann und Frau auf Augenhöhe klappen könnte. In unserem Podcast geht es um Stimmen und Stimmungen, um Religion, Farben, Pornos und Geschichtsbücher. Um Mathe, Macht und Management. Um alles eben, was unser Leben ausmacht. Dabei behalten wir die Schlagzeilen im Blick und den Alltag im Hinterkopf. Am Ende geht es uns darum, frische Lösungen für unser persönliches Leben, aber auch für Politik und Wirtschaft zu finden. All diese Gespräche mit Expertinnen und Experten nehmen wir auf. Das Ergebnis hören Sie hier.

«I was lucky enough to be taught how to combine family and career from an early age.»

«Nonetheless: men and woman in Switzerland do not experience the same degree of participation and representation. Among other reasons, that’s because it’s often difficult to combine a family and career. But our society is only strong enough for the challenges that lie ahead if 50 percent of all those involved at all levels of economic and cultural life are women.»
