No fewer than 13 rallies are planned across Switzerland between late September and early October, including five in French-speaking Switzerland.

“We no longer have the luxury of patience,” said Pardis Pouranpir of the Climate Alliance. According to the coalition, the summer of 2026 has highlighted the severity of global warming more than ever before and calls for widespread action.
