Switzerland on the road to global sustainable development: progress and challenges

Neuchâtel, 15.12.2008 (FSO) - Switzerland is increasingly meeting its responsibility for global sustainable development.

At the same time, however, non-sustainable trends are also observable. This is evident from a new set of indicators on the global dimension of sustainable development which was developed by the Federal Statistical Office (FSO) and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC).
