Hilmi Gashi Switzerland
During the 90s political and economic crisis in Kosova, Mr. Gashi stopped his studies in the University of Prishtina, in the Faculty of Economics and migrated to Switzerland. In 1992 he restarted his studies in the University of Freiburg, within the Economic Faculty, where he also completed his Master studies to become an “Manager of the non-profit organisations”. His professional career in Switzerland is a typical one of a migrant. In the beginning he worked as a painter, and later he worked as a translator and official in a local radio. After he left radio RaBe, he started working for the Swiss Red Cross, and from 2005, Mr. Gashi has been a part of the UNIA syndicate. In the elections held on 25.10.2020 for the Municipal Assembly in Muri-Gümligen, Mr. Gashi has managed to win the mandate as an assembly member within the Green Party (GPS), which will be represented by a total of 5 assembly members in this municipality. Beside his professional achievements, Mr. Gashi is an active volunteer for Albanian Diaspora.
