“Everyone should benefit from economic growth.”
Heinrich M. Lanz, President of the Board of Trustees, and Samuel Bon, CEO and Executive Director, look back on 2016 – a year when Swisscontact reviewed its strategy and political debates on international development cooperation took place in Switzerland.
"The economisation of international development is a trend: donor organisations also intend to work more with the private sector. As an organisation with close ties to the business world, Swisscontact is well positioned to uncover ways such a collaboration could be structured to achieve the necessary results", says Heinrich M. Lanz, President of Swisscontact.
