In front of numerous guests from Switzerland and abroad, <strong>Foreign Minister Dominique Hasler and Chairman of the Board of Trustees Peter Beck<\/strong> reaffirmed their commitment to development cooperation and international solidarity. The video message from <strong>Janet Maro, CEO of SAT<\/strong> (Sustainable Agriculture Tanzania, a long-standing LED partner organization), and a discussion between <strong>LED Managing Director Andreas Sicks and Fritz Brugger, Co-Director of the ETH Needle Institute, <\/strong>provided an exciting insight into the complex situation of international development cooperation (DC) and the commitment of the LED team. The <strong>Tellerrand association<\/strong>, represented by <strong>board member<\/strong> <strong>Ricus Jacometti<\/strong>, presented the LED with a short stage play by the <strong>Creative Academy<\/strong> on the subject of inclusion* to mark the anniversary, which was met with great enthusiasm. <strong>Musician Kurt Ackermann<\/strong> struck the right note for the occasion with songs such as &#8220;Fragile&#8221; and &#8220;Appreciate&#8221;. With this 60th anniversary celebration, the LED expressed its appreciation and gratitude for the many years of support. The anniversary celebration ended on a high note with an aperitif riche, organized by our local partner <strong>Verein Ackerschaft<\/strong>. Happy birthday, LED! The event on March 21 marked the start of the anniversary year, which also includes a photo exhibition on the LED focus topic &#8220;Food systems with a focus on agroecology&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n<p><em>*Inclusion is based on an open society and means creating an environment that enables all people to participate on an equal footing.
