She currently serves as Minister of Foreign Affairs, Education and Sport for the Patriotic Union. She was appointed in March 2021 by Prime Minister Daniel Risch in March 2021, succeeding Katrin Eggenberger.[2]

Early life and education

Hasler was born Dominique Matt on 6 October 1978 in Mauren, Liechtenstein. She was raised there and attended the local public schools. Her parents divorced when she was a child and her mother remarried soon after. She took the surname of her stepfather which was Gantenbein.[citation needed]

She continued to studying Teaching at the Intercantonal College of Special Education in Zürich, Switzerland. Gantenbein then worked as a special education teacher at several schools, before studying herself for a master's degree in Business Administration in Entrepreneurial Management at the University of Liechtenstein.[3][4]

Career

Between 2000 and 2008, Hasler was a special needs teacher, at schools in Trübbach, Switzerland and Schaan. From 2008 to 2010, she was a member of the management of the curative schools center (HPZ) in Schaan where she headed the schooling department. Before assuming office she held other management positions, namely she led a retirement home.[5]

Politics

Following the 2017 general election in Liechtenstein, Gantenbein was named as the Minister of Home Affairs, Education and Environment in the new parliament on 30 March. She was one of two members of the Patriotic Union named as Ministers in the coalition Government.[6] She has since met with her education counterpart in the Government of Austria, Sonja Hammerschmid, regarding ongoing cooperation in work with school leavers.[7] Gantenbein has also taken up her seat at the European Union Home Affairs Council as part of her work as Interior Minister.[8]

She has announced her intention to not run for re-election in the 2025 Liechtenstein general election.[9]
