Diversity
Switzerland's societal fabric is a tapestry woven from diverse threads. With a population of 8.54 million, Switzerland stands out not only for its size but also for its remarkable diversity. Approximately 25% of its residents hail from foreign origins, a testament to Switzerland's inclusive nature.
The majority of these foreign residents, about 80%, share European roots. This makes Switzerland a leading European immigration destination, with 19 entries per thousand inhabitants. Switzerland's commitment to diversity and inclusion is not only a source of pride but also a vibrant reflection of a society that welcomes people from all walks of life.
