Future Festival 2025: Think and defend democracy!
Campus der Leuphana Universität Lüneburg, 21335 Lüneburg, Deutschland - The Helmut Schmidt future festival 2025, which takes place from May 27th to 29th on the campus of the Leuphana University of Lüneburg, offers an important space for exchange about current social challenges. A large number of topics are dealt with under the motto "Defend and reinvent democracy", including the protection of the climate, the preservation of freedom in democracy and ethical use of artificial intelligence. Participants from Germany, Austria and Switzerland have applied with a video or essay and bring fresh perspectives into the discussion. Among the approximately 60 young future shapes are also well -known pioneers such as Luisa Neubauer and Philipp von der Wippel, such as Zeit Verlag reported.
The opening of the festival is celebrated with a special artistic performance. Dancers of the Sasha Waltz company perform the dance piece "In C", consisting of 53 individually implemented movements. Waltz is awarded the Helmut Schmidt future prize during the event for their commitment in the field of art and democracy. This award honors her tireless efforts to include an inclusive and democratic society, such as leuPhane communicated.
participation and exchange
The Future Festival not only offers space for discussions between scientists, publicists and politicians, but also a creative exchange. Participants develop a democracy manifesto, which will be presented during the award ceremony in the Thalia Theater in Hamburg. At a time when social cohesion is often put to the test, it is important that young people actively participate in their future and further develop their skills. Leuphana President Sascha Spoun encourages the students to participate in these processes.
Another explosive topic is the discussion about cultural participation. This plays a crucial role in political discourse in Germany. Access to cultural offers not only promotes individual creativity, but also strengthens the sense of community in society. In this context, cultural education is recognized as the key to empowerment and promoting democratic participation. Cultural participation not only enables access to highly cultural offers, but also the participation in public cultural institutions, which increases the political participation of the citizens, such as Bleiben Sie informiert: Jeden Abend senden wir Ihnen die Artikel des Tages aus der Kategorie Bildung – übersichtlich als Liste. The Helmut Schmidt future festival 2025 would like to meet these challenges and give an impetus for discussion. Through interactive formats and the exchange of different opinions, the participants should be able to actively participate in society and to develop ideas in order to strengthen democratic structures. In this dynamic time it is more important than ever to find new ways to promote awareness of democracy and cultural participation.
