FiBL celebrates its 50th birthday in 2023. Over the course of the year, several "anniversary voices" contribute to the celebrations.

These voices will share their perspectives on FiBL and talk about their relationship with the institute. This time, it is Bernard Lehmann's turn. He has been the President of the Foundation Council of FiBL Switzerland since 2022. From 2011 to 2019, he was the head of the Swiss Federal Office for Agriculture FOAG, before which he was a professor of Agricultural Economics at ETH Zurich for over 20 years. At the United Nations, he is involved in the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition and on the board of the Global Crop Diversity Trust. He is also the Chairman of the Platform Science and Policy of the Swiss Academy of Sciences.
