A survey of parental attitudes in Switzerland

Quelle est l’attitude des parents en Suisse à l’égard de l’école à journée continue ? Une étude, intitulée « All-day childcare and schooling. A survey of parental attitudes in Switzerland », apporte des réponses sur la base d’une enquête menée auprès de 2161 parents. Publiée par l’ASSH, elle met en lumière des disparités régionales entre la Suisse romande et la Suisse alémanique. Les résultats montrent que, dans les deux régions linguistiques, les parents sont majoritairement favorables à l’accueil à journée continue. Il existe néanmoins des différences importantes en termes d’attitudes et de motivations spécifiques d’une région et d’un groupe sociodémographique à l’autre. En Suisse alémanique, les parents soulignent l’importance de mieux concilier vie familiale et vie professionnelle. En Suisse romande, si cet aspect s’avère également essentiel, les offres globales le sont tout autant. Des facteurs tels que l’âge des enfants, les caractéristiques sociales ainsi que les attitudes concernant les rôles de genre et celui de l’État créent des points de vue différents. L’étude propose des pistes de réflexion pour améliorer les politiques de l’éducation et nourrir le débat, et met en évidence la diversité des opinions sur ce sujet d’actualité.

Towards an equitable landscape for global research partnerships

This factsheet provides practical recommendations for enabling conditions, fostering balanced partnerships, and achieving meaningful results. Key considerations include co-creating research agendas, promoting targeted capacity development, reducing institutional disparities, and adopting transparent evaluation practices. Funders are also encouraged to support outputs and communication efforts that align with societal and policy needs. These measures can help foster partnerships that are grounded in equity, shared goals, and mutual respect.

Update of Swiss Community Needs for Research Infrastructures 2029-2032 and beyond

This document is an update to the Astronomy Community Roadmap published in March 2022. It presents the needs of the Swiss astronomy and astrophysics community in terms of future national and international research infrastructures.

 

Together with similar Community Roadmaps in other disciplines, it is an element of the four-year process leading to the development of the Swiss Roadmap for Research Infrastructures 2027 to be written by the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) in view of the ERI Dispatch 2029–2032 to the Federal Council. The role of these ‘bottom-up’ inputs is to serve as an important basis for the strategic planning of the higher education institutions on new or major upgrades to national infrastructures and to inform and support SERI during its decision-making process on Swiss participation in international research infrastructure networks and organisations.
