Score Analysis
Analysis of Switzerland's policy signalling profile
Switzerland's WokeMeter assessment score of 51 positions it in the moderate intensity range, consistent with its current composite score. Ranking 28th globally and in the 85th percentile, Switzerland displays a balanced approach to policy signalling. The country maintains consistent scores across dimensions, reflecting a moderate level of Western-style progressive policy signalling. The absence of recent events and significant policy changes over the past three years supports this stable position. Notably, the scores for both institutional DEI policy intensity and corporate/investor signalling are at 51.04, suggesting Switzerland has established but not exceptionally intensive policies in these areas, aligning with its overall moderate assessment.
In examining Switzerland's dimension scores, each category, including speech & expression climate, education & curriculum signalling, media & platform moderation, and corporate DEI intensity, registers near the 51 mark. This uniformity indicates a consistent level of policy signalling across various sectors. The legislative/regulatory activism dimension is slightly lower at 50.78, showing that while there is legislative activity, it does not intensively signal progressive policies. The external data context, with indices such as quality of life and press freedom all rated at 50, further supports the country's moderate signalling intensity. Switzerland's stable scores reflect a balanced policy environment, without significant emphasis on recent progressive policy shifts or rollbacks.
