Politics

Student perspectives belong in the discussion.

Decisions about education, psychology and society affect students across Switzerland. Our Politics department brings their interests into those conversations.

Our responsibility

Representation across institutions and language regions

PsyCH-Students represents psychology students nationally. We work with local student associations and maintain relationships with academic and professional organizations so that students' experiences can inform wider discussions.

The Politics department follows developments in education, the profession and society, supports the association's positions, and coordinates advocacy initiatives. Its work draws on the questions students bring from their studies and their transition into practice.

What the department does

01

Follow relevant developments

Monitor educational, professional and societal debates that concern psychology students. Keep the association informed about issues that may require a shared response.

02

Support the association's positions

Bring student concerns into the association's discussions and contribute to its positions. Work across departments when an issue also involves education, communication or external relationships.

03

Coordinate advocacy

Help organize initiatives that represent students' interests. Connect national work with local student associations and relevant organizations.

Publications & advocacy

Our statements, positions, consultation responses, open letters and advocacy updates on issues affecting psychology students in Switzerland.
