Swiss international cooperation should help ensure that the fight against climate change does not happen at the expense of the poorest and most disadvantaged - and needs sufficient funding to do so. International cooperation and research must be more closely linked - and measures for Ukraine require a separate legal basis for funding that lies outside of international cooperation. These and other recommendations were addressed by the Wyss Academy for Nature to Swiss Federal Councillors, Ignazio Cassis and Guy Parmelin, in a statement sent today on Switzerland's draft Strategy for International Cooperation 2025-2028.
