“We can do everything except speak Standard German.” With this pioneering campaign, Baden-Württemberg once took advantage of the lack of courage or foresight in Saxony and recorded long-lasting success in the way it was perceived.

With the cooperation agreements on digitization renewed last year, however, Saxony and Baden-Württemberg deepened their otherwise long-standing successful collaboration, thus continuing to create real added value and drawing on the resulting synergies – together they are digitally successful.

With the education initiative "100 Champions" the federal states are now jointly building on this and committing themselves to the sustainable development of our society through the holistic advancement of young people and the targeted strengthening of the economy.

Following the groundbreaking launch of the “100 Champions for Saxony” education initiative, the official launch of the “100 Champions for Baden-Württemberg” education initiative has now followed.

The kick-off event took place in the town of Heubach, which is representative of rural Germany: picturesque and tranquil, family-friendly and integrative, as well as traditional and innovative. Here, hospitality is lived, impulses are given and numerous opportunities for personal realization are offered.

After Ronald Bracholdt and Josephine Sickert presented the educational initiative, the host and mayor Dr. Joy Asongazoh Alemazung, the committed local partners of YOUTH GLOBE and representatives of the interested I The challenges of our society with regard to the promising opportunities for promoting education in Baden-Württemberg were enthusiastically discussed and promising impulses and solution concepts – with a focus, of course, on the “100 Champions” educational initiative – were considered and discussed with host and mayor Dr. Joy Asongazoh Alemazung, the committed local partners of YOUTH GLOBE and representatives of the interested IHK Ostwürttemberg.

What was clear was that all those involved care about the sustainable support of young people in terms of a functioning society based on a strong economy. And everyone agreed that this can and will be achieved with the “100 Champions” education initiative!

But once again, the question arises as to what extent the innovative Swabians will know how to make targeted use of the know-how initially offered to the Saxons and once again outstrip them.

It doesn't matter to us! The main thing is that together we are simply successful!
