supported the non-profit organisation Arbeiterkind.de with AV technology at their first national conference in Germany. The group assists young people from working-class families in beginning post-secondary studies by providing scholarships and consultation. Over the course of two days, 200 volunteer mentors developed an approach to consulting and supporting future university students.
Under the guidance of moderators Natasha Walker and Arved Lüth, they playfully used painting, crafting and writing to develop various leading questions. The results were documented, summarised and evaluated using a specially designed web application.
The gathering concluded with a big party at Studio 1 in Berlin’s Ballhaus Rixdorf. A live band and DJ provided the perfect atmosphere to celebrate the conclusion of the event, and enshrouded the location with light – both inside and out.
