Michael Sahli becomes new head of the Bern Information Service
Michael Sahli will become the new head of the City of Bern’s Information Service starting in April 2022. The City of Bern announced this on Thursday. The 50-year-old currently serves as an editor, producer, and host of the “Regionaljournal Bern Freiburg Wallis” program on Swiss Radio SRF.
Sahli studied journalism and communication sciences at the University of Fribourg. He also completed the Ringier School of Journalism. Before joining Regionaljournal, he worked for the Stapferhaus Museum in Lenzburg, for Radio SRF 3, for the newspaper The Covenant and the radio conveyor belt.
Thanks to his many years of experience in journalism, Sahli is very familiar with the political processes in the city and canton of Bern and the workings of official communication, writes the Bern municipal council in its press release.
Sahli will replace Walter Langenegger, the current head of information in the city of Berne, who is retiring at the end of October. (SDA)
