About us
The free citizenship advice is a joint project by SP 6 and SP 10. We strongly believe that everyone who lives here should be recognized as a full member of society. And in a democracy, that means having the right to vote.
One third of Zurich’s residents are not allowed to vote.
In the city of Zurich, 33.6% of the permanent population do not hold a Swiss passport (Source: 2023, Statistics Office of the City of Zurich). They live here, they work here, they pay taxes. But when it comes to political decisions, they have no say.
We believe: If you live here, you should have a voice.
Swiss citizenship laws are strict, and we can’t change them at the local level. But what we can do is support people who want to become Swiss citizens.
