Our philosophy
Affordable housing for students is essential for the attractiveness and competitiveness of Zurich as a university location. There is still only affordable housing in Zurich for around 2/3 of the students who need a room. There is a shortage of thousands of places to live!
Mission
We strive for more. More affordable housing for students in the city of Zurich, more sustainable housing and building quality, more flexibility and more satisfied students.
Housing quality = study quality
Studying at the universities in Zurich is extremely demanding. Success only comes to those who find space for concentration, recreation, exchange and balance. The SSWZ offers the necessary infrastructure for these needs.
Non-profit status
As a non-profit foundation, the SSWZ performs tasks in the general interest. The focus is on achieving the foundation's purpose, namely the provision of affordable housing for students in Zurich. The activities of the SSWZ sustainably strengthen Zurich as a university location. All the properties in the real estate portfolio are maintained are maintained with the utmost care and are thus preserved inalienably for future generations of students.
Sustainability
SSWZ strives to play its part in all three pillars of sustainability (ecological, economic and social). Construction projects are built to the highest quality standards, barrier-free and with a focus on sustainability and the entire life cycle of the property. The range of rooms is accessible to all students in the city of Zurich. Where possible, SSWZ also offers space for local businesses and children's uses. This tenant mix contributes to social diversity and enrichment of the city's neighbourhoods.
Administration and management
WOKO (Student Housing Cooperative) is the organisation commissioned by the SSWZ to manage all properties. It has specialised in the management and administration of student housing for more than 60 years.
