About us

Vison

Our vision is a positive and secure future. Pour Demain is a non-profit think tank that develops policy proposals on neglected issues positively impacting Switzerland and beyond. We are committed to fact-based policies, developing scientifically sound recommendations and facilitating the exchange between science, politics and civil society.

Our Approach

Our Approach

Impact:

We focus on topics that reach beyond the borders of Switzerland and the usual policy timelines.

Concrete:

We develop specific and actionable policy proposals for direct impact, rather than only trying to shift the general discourse.

Neglected:

Our issues are frequently overlooked in political dialogue because they are often technical (e.g. biosecurity) or have no constituency (e.g. future generations).

Non-partisan:

Our proposals do not fit into the left-wing-right-wing political pattern, which allows us to find non-partisan solutions.
