SAFFA

The Schweizeische Ausstellung für Frauenarbeit, commonly abbreviated to SAFFA, meaning Swiss Exhibition for women's work, exhibitions took place for the very first time in 1928 in Bern and 1958 in Zürich. SAFFA was organized by the Bund Schweizerischer Frauenvereine (BFS), the Swiss Catholic Women's League (SKF) and by 28 other Swss women's associations, on occasion of the precarious situation of working women in the postwar years.
