Mission Statement: Security through Dialogue
SWISS SECURITY FORUM is a politically and commercially independent platform aimed at promoting a dialogue between Swiss civil society, public authorities, business, politics and academia regarding current and future topics and challenges in the area of security.
Starting Point: Why SSF is needed
-
Security is one of the key issues of our time. The world is changing rapidly. Geostrategic, political, religious, economic and social changes have an impact on Switzerland.
​​
-
Security is a significant strategic asset for a country and central to our prosperity.
​​
-
Currently, the citizens of Switzerland are inadequately informed about security issues. However, well-informed citizens as well as political and economic leaders are crucial for a working democracy and a safe country.
Objectives and Tasks of the SSF
