Career
During his apprenticeship as a chemical laboratory technician, Jonas Dahinden was responsible for the laboratory’s waste disposal. Being confronted with the vast amounts of waste heightened his awareness of environmental issues, which is why, after completing his apprenticeship, he decided to pursue a degree in environmental technology at the FHNW in Muttenz. After earning his bachelor’s degree, he transferred to ETH Zurich to pursue a master’s degree in environmental engineering in order to deepen his technical background.
