Purpose
What SolviHum is for.
The association's purpose is to develop sustainable solutions to global and structural challenges facing humanity, to create physical and digital platforms for people and institutions who share this vision, and to carry out projects in the public interest.

Sustainable solutions
Answers to global and structural challenges should last – not only work in the short term (Art. 3).

Physical and digital platforms
Places and tools where volunteers, professionals and resources come together – in Bern and online (Art. 3, Art. 4 c).
- 03
Education and research
Planning and implementing education and research projects (Art. 4 a).
