Swiss Academies of Arts and Sciences a+
Statement by the Swiss Academies of Arts and Sciences on the 2023/9 consultation “Funding of Education, Research and Innovation in the years 2025-2028 (ERI Dispatch 25-28)”
The Swiss Academies of Arts and Sciences emphatically demand, in their statement on the ERI Dispatch 2025-2028, that the financing of their core tasks be secured in the upcoming funding period as well. The Federal Council’s ambitious goals, which are set out in the ERI Dispatch, can hardly be achieved with the Academies’ proposed funding.

A film commissioned by the Swiss Academy of Sciences (SCNAT) summarises the current state of knowledge on this subject.
