At the end of January, the council met again for a weekend to discuss strategic topics as well as operational aspects of our work. These meetings are very important for us, as it is the only time we have to sit and work together. In between meetings we have to rely on virtual collaboration, which we will try to improve by implementing a project management tool in the next months.

Early on Saturday morning, LUC Switzerland met at the Zurich main station. All equipped with a train ticket and warm clothes we were ready to leave for St. Gallen.
