Please join us for an exit interview with Ambassador Martin Dahinden to hear more about his career in diplomacy and development before he completes his service as the Ambassador of Switzerland to the United States.
Before his tenure as Ambassador of Switzerland to the United States, Ambassador Dahinden served as the Director of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) from 2008 to 2014 and as the head of the Directorate of Corporate Management of Switzerland's Federal Department of Foreign Affairs from 2004 to 2008. He also served as a member of the Swiss Delegation to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) at the Embassy of Switzerland in Paris and as Deputy to the Swiss Ambassador in Nigeria.
During his time as Ambassador to the United States, Ambassador Dahinden promoted the Swiss Apprenticeship Model, which has gained significant traction from not only companies, but also federal and state government agencies, researchers, educational institutions, and workforce development advocates because of the model's success in creating a highly-skilled, sustainable talent pool.
Born in Zurich, Switzerland, Ambassador Dahinden earned a Ph. D. in Economics (Business Administration) from the University of Zurich.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
