Have you ever wondered how the Swiss who live abroad participate in and find out about which laws and policies will affect them? They are the CSA Delegates who represent the Swiss nationals who live and work in the UK on the Council of the Swiss Abroad. The Council of the Swiss Abroad (CSA) represents the interests of all Swiss citizens abroad vis-à-vis the authorities and public in Switzerland. It is also often referred to as the “Parliament of the Fifth Switzerland”.The UK has an allocation of five elected Delegates, based on the number of Swiss nationals living and working in the UK. 

Would you like to learn more on the Delegates and their work? Then join us on the 23rd of January where we will be explaining the role of the delegate as well as provide you with the necessary information to put forward your candidancy.  To register click on the link below:
