Swiss­Foun­da­ti­ons: new CEO

Swiss­Foun­da­ti­ons, the asso­cia­tion for Swiss chari­ties, has named Richard Brogle as its new CEO. Brogle is taking over from Fran­ziska Juch, who step­ped down from her role at the end of 2020. Brogle is an engi­neer, lawyer and has a docto­rate in chemis­try (Dr. Sc. tech. ETH). He was CEO of an inter­na­tio­nally active foun­da­tion for seve­ral years, which means he is very fami­liar with both the sector as a whole and Swiss­Foun­da­ti­ons. He brings with him a wealth of expe­ri­ence in inter­na­tio­nal deve­lo­p­ment. He has been a member of the extra-parlia­men­tary Advi­sory Commis­sion on Inter­na­tio­nal Coope­ra­tion (BK IZA) since 2020.  He will take up his posi­tion on 1 June 2021 at the Swiss­Foun­da­ti­ons gene­ral meeting.
