TEST Financial aid for projects on gender equality in the workplace

The Confederation supports projects that aim to promote true gender equality in the workplace in practice and awards financial aid of around 4 million francs annually for this purpose. The Federal Office for Gender Equality (FOGE) is responsible for awarding this financial aid.

Public and private non-profit organisations can submit applications for financial aid. The projects must contribute as specifically and sustainably as possible to true gender equality in the workplace in practice.

The submission dates for applications are 31 January and 31 August each year.
