If only I knew: Fertility policy and family planning in Switzerland
This article is also available in German.
This white paper is the result of a cooperation between the Competence Center for Diversity, Disability and Inclusion at the University of St.Gallen and Merck Switzerland.
We used multi-source data to identify common misconceptions about (in)fertility in Switzerland and to better understand current barriers to family planning and fertility treatments. Based on this, we developed recommendations for action for people who are or will be affected by infertility, employers, and the federal government. While each of these stakeholders has an important role to play, it is their combined efforts that can make a difference.
