After a three-year pilot phase and a one-year break, the Swiss International Programme has been finally re-launched. Of the 57 projects submitted in 2022, 30 were selected for funding, out of which 12 will contribute to the advancement of higher education. They will be financed by the CHF 3 million made available for this programme, serving all education sectors and building bridges between different sectors in some cases.

The selected projects will develop cooperation with many countries. The countries most involved are Germany, Austria, Canada, the United States, Great Britain and Sweden. Some projects will involve just two institutions and others five or even more, while the types of institutions most represented among the applicants are the universities of teacher education and the universities of applied sciences with 7 projects each.

The projects will start soon and are expected to last between 1 and 4 years. A new call for projects will be launched in autumn with a deadline foreseen for spring 2023.
