#NCCRWomen campaign
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of women obtaining the right to vote in Switzerland, all NCCRs have joined forces to introduce you to some women working in Swiss research institutes.
From International Women’s Day on 8 March until 31 October 2021 – the 50th anniversary of the first women’s vote in Switzerland, the NCCR women will show young people of high school or undergraduate age who they are, what they do and why they do it, in a series of 60-second videos.
