Extend parental leave

No Rather no Rather yes Yes
Comment

Absolutely! This is one of my core concerns. As a society, we need children and families, otherwise the country will die out. Unfortunately, however, Switzerland is not yet child-friendly. We have to work on this, e.g. with affordable daycare places, but also with parental leave. Other countries are showing the way: Parental leave is long overdue in Switzerland! In times of a shortage of skilled workers, the economy would also benefit from a better work-life balance.

Unbedingt! Dies ist eines meiner Kernanliegen. Wir sind als Gesellschaft auf Kinder und Familien ausgewiesen, sonst stirbt der Staat aus. Leider ist die Schweiz aber noch nicht kinderfreundlich. Daran müssen wir arbeiten, z.B. mit bezahlbaren Kita-Plätzen, aber auch mit Elternzeit. Andere Staaten machen es vor: Die Elternzeit ist in der Schweiz längst überfällig! Auch die Wirtschaft würde in Zeiten des Fachkräftemangels von einer besseren Vereinbarkeit von Familie und Beruf profitieren.

Health

Introduce compulsory vaccination for children

No Rather no Rather yes Yes
Comment

As new parents, my partner and I had to think about it, but for us it was quickly clear: we want to vaccinate our child. Vaccinations have brought society extremely far and eradicated many diseases. This only works if as many people as possible participate. Unfortunately, there is always vaccination damage, but in my opinion, the public interest outweighs this - together we are strong! But I do not want to force anyone.

Als frischgebackene Eltern haben mein Partner und ich uns darüber Gedanken machen müssen, aber für uns war schnell klar: Wir wollen unser Kind impfen. Impfungen haben die Gesellschaft extrem weiter gebracht und viele Krankheiten ausgerottet. Das funktioniert nur, wenn sich möglichst viele daran beteiligen. Leider gibt es immer wieder Impfschäden, aber meiner Ansicht nach überwiegt hier das öffentliche Interesse - gemeinsam sind wir stark! Aber zwingen möchte ich niemanden.

Federal competence for national hospital planning

No Rather no Rather yes Yes
Comment

Various interests get in the way here. In the canton of Schwyz, with three hospitals, we actually have one too many (underutilization), but in every region the hospital is an important employer and people value the proximity to the hospital (feeling of security). But too many underutilized hospitals increase health care costs for everyone. Supraregional planning is needed: health does not stop at the cantonal border.

Hier stehen sich verschiedene Interessen im Weg. Im Kanton Schwyz haben wir mit drei Spitälern eigentlich eines zu viel (zu wenig Auslastung), aber in jeder Region ist das Spital eine wichtige Arbeitgeberin und die Menschen schätzen die Nähe zum Spital (Gefühl der Sicherheit). Aber zu viele schlecht ausgelastete Spitäler erhöhen die Gesundheitskosten für alle. Es braucht eine überregionale Planung: Gesundheit macht nicht an der Kantonsgrenze halt.

Education

Inclusive schooling

No Rather no Rather yes Yes
Comment

Pedagogy shows quite clearly: children benefit in school classes with as diverse a composition as possible. It takes extra effort on the part of the teaching staff, but the children, both those who are strong and those who are weak in learning, benefit from it!

Die Pädagogik zeigt ganz klar: Kinder profitieren in möglichst unterschiedlich zusammengesetzten Schulklassen. Es braucht eine Mehrleistung des Lehrpersonals, aber die lernstarken wie -schwachen Kinder profitieren davon!

Immigration & integration

Make naturalization requirements more flexible

No Rather no Rather yes Yes
Comment

The path to a Swiss passport is too long and unnecessarily rocky. The costs vary extremely depending on the canton and municipality. A uniform and fair naturalization procedure is needed.

Der Weg zum Schweizer Pass ist zu lang und unnötig steinig. Die Kosten variieren je nach Kanton und Gemeinde extrem. Es braucht ein einheitliches und faires Einbürgerungsverfahren.

Increase the quota of third-country nationals for skilled workers

No Rather no Rather yes Yes
Comment

The shortage of skilled workers has become extremely acute in recent years - we need qualified personnel from abroad. At the same time, however, Switzerland must ensure that sufficient personnel are also trained in its own country. Among other things, because otherwise we will poach people from other countries and these countries will then be left without the well-trained staff that they have trained at great expense.

Der Fachkräftemangel hat sich in den letzten Jahren extrem zugespitzt - wir brauchen qualifiziertes Personal aus dem Ausland. Gleichzeitig muss die Schweiz aber dafür sorgen, dass auch im eigenen Land genügend Personal ausgebildet wird. Unter anderem weil wir sonst anderen Ländern Menschen abwerben und diese Länder dann ohne das gut ausgebildete Personal dastehen, das sie teuer ausgebildet haben.

Equality between same-sex and heterosexual couples

No Rather no Rather yes Yes
Comment

Absolutely! But this equality must also be promoted. LGBTQIA+ people are unfortunately still discriminated against and are at greater risk of experiencing violence. Prevention and education in this area is extremely important.

Unbedingt! Diese Gleichstellung muss aber auch gefördert werden. LGBTQIA+ Personen werden leider nach wie vor diskriminiert und sind einem grösseren Risiko ausgesetzt, Gewalt zu erfahren. Prävention und Aufklärungsarbeit in diesem Bereich ist extrem wichtig.

Wage equality between women and men

No Rather no Rather yes Yes
Comment

Although equality between men and women has long been enshrined in the constitution, it has not yet been realized in many areas. Equal pay for equal work regardless of gender must finally become a reality. Without controls, we haven't gotten very far in the last few decades, so tutoring is needed now.

Obwohl die Gleichstellung von Mann und Frau schon lange in der Verfassung steht, ist sie in vielen Bereich noch nicht verwirklicht. Gleichen Lohn für gleiche Arbeit unabhängig des Geschlechts muss endlich Realität werden. Ohne Kontrollen sind wir in den letzten Jahrzehnten nicht weit gekommen, daher braucht es nun Nachhilfe.

If anything, the last few decades show that this is widening the gap between rich and poor. A few are getting richer and richer on the backs of the poor.

Die letzten Jahrzehnte zeigen eher, dass damit die Schere zwischen Arm und Reich noch weiter aufgeht. Einige wenige werden auf dem Rücken der Armen immer reicher.

Comment

As a new mother, I am convinced that children need close caregivers. But it doesn't take ONE parent to do everything. What is important is consistency and warm care - whether from family members or qualified staff at the daycare center. Those who want to care for their child 100% should absolutely be able to do so. For this we need a real parental leave and the recognition of this valuable work!

Als frischgebackene Mutter bin ich überzeugt, dass Kinder enge Bezugspersonen brauchen. Es braucht aber nicht EIN Elternteil, der alles übernimmt. Wichtig ist Beständigkeit und herzliche Betreuung - egal ob von Familienmitgliedern oder qualifiziertem Personal in der Kita. Wer sein Kind 100% betreuen möchte, soll das unbedingt tun können. Dafür brauchen wir eine echte Elternzeit und die Anerkennung dieser wertvollen Arbeit!

Studies clearly show that rehabilitated offenders are much less likely to recidivate. Once the sentence is completed, society must accept offenders back.

Studien belegen deutlich, dass wiedereingegliederte Straftäter:innen viel weniger rückfällig werden. Wenn die Strafe absolviert ist, muss die Gesellschaft Straftäter:innen wieder aufnehmen.
