Media & development policy
Our team
«It’s great to be part of this motivated and creative team. I am very happy to be persistently committed to resilient and sustainable food systems in the south as well as in the north. »
Nicolas Hofer
Intern communication and development policy
«Making global supply chains fairer and more sustainable is key to improving the living and working conditions of people in the Global South. SWISSAID pursues this endeavour by doing advocacy among Swiss companies, which play a crucial role in many global supply chains. I am glad to be able to contribute to it on a daily basis. It makes my professional life particularly meaningful and motivating.»
Yvan Schulz
Research and advocacy on raw material and responsible sourcing
"Food sovereignty, solidarity and gender equality are three issues that are particularly close to my heart and they are among SWISSAID's core concerns. In my work, I try to increase the visibility of the many activities that are carried out in the name of hope both here and abroad."
Delphine Neyaga
Media Relations and Campaining
"Getting involved in the fight against the curse of raw materials is both exciting and absurd. Because it seems natural to me that the local population should benefit from the wealth of their land."
Marc Ummel
Natural Resources
"I am fascinated by the diversity of seeds that the world's farmers have created. Humanity depends on this treasure when it comes to overcome the challenges of climate warming and species loss. That is why I am working by SWISSAID, to ensure that seeds remain in the hands of farmers and are not monopolized by seed multinationals."
Simon Degelo
Seed policy and biodiversity
"Considering the huge challenge of limiting global warming to a maximum of 1.5 degrees Celsius, the categories "needy", "helpers", "donors" are blurred. SWISSAID convinces me because we are working on an equal footing with the true experts in the field - farmers on four continents -, and are promoting climate-friendly, ecological food systems in both the North and the South."
Sonja Tschirren
climate and ecological farming
"The concerns of women and farmers as well as climate protection through agroecology deserve more attention - at the political level and in the public space. With my work at SWISSAID, I want to make these concerns more widely heard, especially in Switzerland."
