Action of the Cancer League Free sunscreen for the Swiss skin cancer hotspot

The Swiss Cancer League has launched an initiative to combat skin cancer by installing free sunscreen dispensers across the country. With Switzerland being among the most affected nations globally, the campaign aims to raise awareness about sun protection. Over seventy dispensers, providing SPF 50 sunscreen, are available at beaches, swimming pools, and events from May to September. The initiative is supported by the German cosmetics company Beiersdorf through its brands Nivea and Eucerin, which cover all costs of installation, refilling, and maintenance. Local communities benefit from this partnership, avoiding financial burden while promoting public health. Similar programs exist in other countries like France, the Netherlands, and the United States, often funded by public-private partnerships.
