On this week's Kids in Mind, Dr Rebecca Weber looks how parents should get professional help for their child if they think they need it.

All this week on Swiss Up Dario is making sure we all stay safe while outside. He's looking at animals that could kill you! In this first programme, the Ibex.

On this week's Learn More, Sean Power from the Insitut Florimont looks at the choices expats have with schools in Switzerland - and how demand is not what it once was.

In the centre of Zurich, just a few hundred metres from the station, is the Old Botanic Garden of the University of Zurich, or Alter Botanische Garten. Established in 1837, the garden sits on top of one of the old fortifications and gives a great view across the city, as well as being home to dozens of beautiful trees, a historic palm house and the superb Gessner Garten. Peter Enz, the Director of the University of Zurich Botanic Garden, takes us on a tour.

Michael McKay speaks to British/Australian human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell. He is best known for his work with LGBT social movements.

He has devoted much of his life to being an advocate of causes; causes of human rights, causes of discrimination, causes of peace and justice, causes of the underdog.

Ever wondered how the Swiss government is different to every other governing system in the world? How do cabinet members get elected? What does the president do and how much power does he have? (Hint: not much!).

Join Dario today as he walks us through the Swiss Federal Cabinet on another episode of Swiss Up!

Today Dario looks at one of Europe's biggest festivals - and it's on this weekend!

340,000 people are expected in Neuchatel for the Fête des Vendange, or Grape Harvest Festival. It's on this Friday-Sunday (28-30 Sept 2018).
