Description:

Next stop, Italian-speaking Switzerland: one national language, two cantons, multiple identities Society Suitcase in hand, let's go! Next stop, Italian-speaking Switzerland. The itinerary first takes you to two Swiss cantons - Ticino and Grisons - and then opens up to the whole country. The soundtrack for our trip: the Italian language, jazzed up with some dialectical riffs and unmistakable Helvetisms. Travel note: after this tour of Italian-speaking Switzerland, you'll need more than one suitcase to bring back all the sounds and culture that you'll pick up from Switzerland's third national language. The wheelchair of the future – made in Switzerland Science Education What started as a university project to build a stair-climbing robot turned into a start-up pushing the limits for wheelchair users. Scewo is also the story of three Swiss students who came together to turn their idea into a new business, ready to disrupt an old industry. Swiss startups driving vegan innovation Society Switzerland is playing a leading role in research and innovation in the fast-changing food sector. The Swiss tap that saves water and lives Science Education Good hand washing practice has come firmly into focus during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Amidst the clamour for hand sanitiser and protective face coverings in Europe, it must not be forgotten that there are around 3 billion people who are not able to wash their hands at home with soap and clean water. 1.7 million children die each year due to diseases transmitted by unclean hands. Exciting Swiss innovations, such as The Drop, recently recognised on UNICEF’s May 2020 list of ‘Handwashing Stations and Supplies for the COVID-19 response’, are being developed to meet these needs. Adrian Frutiger, forever true to type Society Adrian Frutiger, who died in 2015, was one of the most influential Swiss typographers of the 20th century. His work, exemplified by the Univers typeface, was a precursor for the way typography is approached today. We talk about Switzerland from many different angles, including sport, innovation, education, mountains and lakes, science, International Geneva, culture, history, cities, the economy, the environment, humanitarian work, Swiss traditions, and gastronomy. The stories we tell are inspired by the people of Switzerland, the Swiss who live abroad, and exchanges with other countries. We also represent Switzerland at major world events, as well as in our embassies and in the digital world.Visit our website. Follow us. Join us!
