Swiss Education Report 2026: What the data means for STEM promotion and equal opportunities
Every three years, the Swiss Coordination Centre for Research in Education publishes the Swiss Education Report. This provides a comprehensive overview of the entire Swiss education system, from pre-school to continuing education. The fifth report of this kind was published on 23 March 2026 and serves the Confederation and cantons as a knowledge base for managing the education system and formulating common education policy goals. In this interview, Edith Schnapper, Head of Promotion of Young Talent at the SATW, explains what the report shows for the STEM sector and why targeted promotion is only effective if it starts early, is designed interactively and takes structural barriers into account.

SPHN: mise en valeur des données de cohortes pour la recherche
Diverses études de cohorte de grande qualité sont en cours en Suisse. Toutefois, les données longitudinales collectées ne peuvent développer leur plein potentiel pour la recherche, que si elles peuvent être trouvées, comparées et utilisées de manière collaborative. Pour répondre à ce besoin, SPHN a lancé en 2021 le Swiss Personalized Health Network Cohort Consortium (SPHN-CC), hébergé dans le Maelstrom Catalogue. Ce catalogue international réunit des informations clés sur le design des études, la collecte des données et les variables mesurées.

No data, no research: How Switzerland is preparing for the future.
Behind every scientific breakthrough lies a vast amount of data. But how do you obtain the necessary data, and how do you ensure that researchers in Zurich and Barcelona can use the same datasets? In a new white paper, the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) sets out how it intends to tackle these issues strategically – thereby reinforcing its role as a trustworthy and reliable partner in European science.
