The team are supported by highly skilled and experienced men and women. They provide information about the different missions taking place all over the world at public events, large exhibitions, and through appearances in various cities, universities and technical colleges as well as at numerous recruit and leadership schools of the Swiss Armed Forces.
The Infomobile, a roadshow vehicle, is frequently used to inform and communicate with the public.
