Working groups

Working groups address specific topics as part of Digital Public Services Switzerland's service mandate.  They are used by the Operational Management Committee as necessary, or by the Digital Public Services Officer for the Confederation and Cantons to provide content support to the Political and Operational Management Committees.  This page lists all the active working groups.  

Tasks and composition

Working groups enable participation by specialists from public administrations, businesses, academia and civil society. The Digital Public Services Officer for the Confederation and Cantons may invite proposals for appointments to the working groups, or may approach specialists directly. He appoints the chair of the working groups. Otherwise, the working groups determine their own membership.
