Social commitment
The activities of the Hans Ringier Foundation for example focus on supporting young journalists as well as quality in journalism. As part of this foundation, the Ringier School of Journalism has been training prospective journalists in every journalistic discipline since 1974. The Ringier Media Prize is awarded for outstanding reporting.
In addition, Ringier Switzerland supports NGOs and ZEWO-certified foundations granting them discounts on advertising space.
Besides the Hans Ringier Foundation based in Switzerland and the Ringier Foundation established in Romania we support the Dariu Foundation in Vietnam, which provides access to formal education and has been awarded several times for its micro-credit system.
Ringier supports projects in the field of journalistic freedom and quality, as well as youth and media competencies. Selected activities for disadvantaged families and children to integrate into society are being supported by our staff through volunteering initiatives.
Our employees are our biggest asset, that is why we offer the possibility of developing their skills in many different ways. To this end Ringier creates conditions allowing staff to satisfactorily combine work and family and provides benefits that strive to improve the working environment.
