‘Passion changes everything’ - We live in a time, in which everything is possible, irrespective of your nationality, gender or social background.
We believe that there are only two things that matter if you want to change something or even everything: It is all about your idea and the passion you put in your work.
We want to create a local forum for ideas within our community that inspires people to pursue the ideas they are passionate about simply because you are at your best doing what excites you.

Antonia Stille

Gewinnerin "Jugend debattiert 2015"
Antonia Stille ist die Gewinnerin von „Jugend debattiert“ im Jahr 2015. Bei dem bundesweiten Wettbewerb geht es darum, zu politischen Streitfragen Position zu beziehen und das Publikum in einer Debatte in den Bann zu ziehen und zu überzeugen. Dabei ist es völlig egal, ob die Debattanten die Position teilen — Pro und Contra werden zugelost. Es geht einzig und allein darum, spontan und flexibel zu sein: mit dem eigenen Wissen, überzeugenden Argumenten und natürlich mit der Sprache.
