Pocket Statistics on Culture in Switzerland

This week the Federal Office of Culture (FOC) published the "Pocket Statistics on Culture in Switzerland". Like last year, this is a special Covid-19 edition that aims to reflect the multiple effects of the Covid-19 crisis on the cultural sector.

Among other things, the "Pocket Statistics" illustrates the challenges facing the cultural sector that have become increasingly apparent over the past two years, as well as the profound changes that the music sector is currently undergoing. It also contains figures on the important support measures that the federal government has provided to the cultural sector during the pandemic.

A summary of the findings, as well as more facts, figures and graphics can be found here.
