positioning

Hunziker had a decisive influence on the father movement in Switzerland and influenced the political and social developments around separation and divorce and child issues. Through numerous media appearances and panel discussions, he has promoted the concerns of the father movement. He helped broaden the domestic violence debate to include male victims of domestic violence.

Hunziker sees himself as a representative of the men's movement only to a limited extent , for him the relationship between the sexes is in the foreground, especially the relationship after separation or divorce. His focus is mainly on the situation of children, from which he derives his political demands for the treatment of separated parents with one another.

Hunziker was particularly criticized by exponents of the women's movement at the beginning of his activity. He was accused of being close to the anti-feminist men's rights movement , from which he, however, distanced himself.
