Political education is an important part of our society and makes a major contribution to our democracy. Our aim in the Department of Political Education is to work to strengthen democratic values and combat extremism. We are increasingly concerned about right-wing extremist developments in Germany, Europe and the rest of the world, which is why it is urgently necessary to scrutinize the current discourse and promote a deeper understanding of political issues and social challenges.

This year, we want to contribute to counteracting this right-wing extremist development. We want to promote students' political knowledge and critical political thinking, because we believe that a sound political education is essential in order to understand current events, political structures and social developments.

In a diverse and pluralistic society, the open exchange of opinions and ideas is of great importance and we would like to promote this with you in the coming year. This will be achieved by organizing discussion rounds, lectures and exhibitions. If you can think of any topics that you consider important or if you have any event requests, please send us an e-mail!
