On 21 January 2026, Innosuisse, the Swiss Innovation Agency, approved an innovation cheque for the preliminary study “ERIDA – Efficient Refugee Integration through Data Analytics (in collaboration with the University of Bern)”. An innovation cheque allows a team to test an idea together with a research partner before a larger project starts.

The research partner is the Institute of Sociology at the University of Bern. Innosuisse finances the research work of the university. No money is paid to the association or to its project ERIDA. The cheque does not guarantee further funding.

The project is listed in ARAMIS, the information system of the Swiss federal administration on research projects (project number 134.425 INNO-SBM).
