We were really looking forward to the final presentations of the high school students on the big stage at the headquarters of our partner, the Fischer Group in Tumlingen. All the better that the online version of the final of the first “Future School Digital Prize” was nevertheless a complete success. Despite contact restrictions, the virtually presented results of the four partner high schools exceeded our expectations by far. The gannaca team around Christopher Peterka and Carlotta Simonis already got a first impression in February at a joint workshop – in the assumption that they would meet again in May for the big final day and the award ceremony. It is all the more impressive that the online final day was a 100% success and that the students were motivated and enthusiastic about the topics “Digitality & Education” and “Algorithmic Public Spheres” despite the circumstances, says jury member Christopher Peterka, who is already looking forward to the catch-up event for the award ceremony next year, the annual Fischer Abiturientenforum. We can´t wait and are pleased to be able to share some of the “digital results” soon. Those who are already curious can find the report on the final day here.

With our birth, we acquire our citizenship. So we have no influence on what this citizenship means for our lives.
What if we had a choice? The choice to become citizens of a community that, for example, attaches importance to climate protection? Why not let each individual make a conscious choice? Is that utopia?
The idea of “Social Citizenship” was the topic of Christopher Patrick Peterka at TEDxKoenigsallee on 13 October in Düsseldorf.
Watch now the complete speech!
