Turning 18 means reaching the age of majority in Switzerland and it is an important moment in the life of young citizens.
To celebrate this milestone, a reception was held in Sydney at the residence of Consul General of Switzerland, Mrs. Bernadette Hunkeler Brown, for young Swiss people living in NSW who are celebrating their 18th birthday in 2022.
This event was organised in partnership with the Consulate General, Switzerland Tourism, CSA Oceania and the Swiss Club of NSW, whose President prepared the delightful finger food and mocktails with his family.
During the evening, the young Swiss citizens learned about their new rights and obligations under Swiss law and received a bag full of Swiss goodies.
The Consulate extended a big thank you to the 26 young Swiss who participated in this event, expressing its sincerest congratulations to the new fully-fledged Swiss citizens!
