Sucessful start

About “Holidays for the Future”
In order to limit the negative consequences for high school students after the pandemic, the Federal Republic of Germany has initiated the program “EaseCorona”. One pillar of the program are offerings to complement the school curriculum in extracurricular learning environments. The purpose is to provide incentives for the young people to get more interested in science and to enhance a good personality development while working in teams. During the pandemic, the pupils could neither go on excursions nor discover science via hands-on experiments. In this context, e-conversion has started together with Stadtwerke München, the Munich energy provider and the Deutsche Museum the project “Holidays for the Future”.
