Stein Council Appoints Andrea Herger to Boost Social Affairs Team
The municipal council of Stein, Appenzell Ausserrhoden, has elected Andrea Herger to the Social Affairs Commission. She will take up her new role on January 1, 2026. Her appointment aims to bring fresh expertise and strengthen the team’s capabilities.
The Social Affairs Commission currently operates with just two voting members. This small size has made detailed discussions difficult. Herger’s arrival will expand the group, improving its ability to handle complex issues.
Herger’s appointment will add both professional knowledge and extra capacity to the Social Affairs Commission. Her role begins in 2026, with a focus on elder care, asylum issues, and supporting existing projects. The council expects her contributions to enhance the commission’s effectiveness in key areas.
