While women make up 52% of tertiary and 58% of secondary education graduates in Switzerland, which represent an increase of 10 and 9 percentage points (p.p.) respectively over the last 30 years, the proportion of women in the working population has risen by only 5 p.p. to 62% over the same timeframe. The rest mainly focus on childcare and (unpaid) domestic work.
What can we – society, companies, and politics – do about this?
Join us for the launch of our latest whitepaper, written and published in collaboration with McKinsey & Company as the third in a trilogy.

The event will kick off with a 10-minutes presentation highlighting the key findings, followed by an insightful panel discussion covering three pivotal points.
the role of affordable and accessible childcare services
economic and social benefits of improved childcare infrastructure
practical steps to implement modern childcare solutions
