Sustainability in schools works best when you don't do everything alone. Networking is the key - to exchange ideas, to support each other, to move forward together. We invite you to join us:

Time: 3:00-6:30 p.m.

Exchange & networking
Get to know others who, like you, want to make a difference at school - regardless of whether you are a pupil, teacher, OGS employee, janitor or active outside of school.
You will meet people who have initiated their own projects - and those who are just starting out. You will find out what works, what others have learned and how you can take your own ideas forward. We will show you examples from the ACtive for Future program, you can visit projects on site, share experiences and ask questions: What do you need to get started? How can we support you?
Come along, get involved, take something with you!

Review
Pimp My Future 2024
For three days - from November 6 to 8, 2024 - the Nadelfabrik in Aachen became a place for living democracy and future-oriented action: At "Pimp My Future!", a format organized by Politik zum Anfassen e.V., young people from all over Aachen developed their own ideas for a more sustainable city and school - in direct exchange with politicians and experts.
Whether in sustainability teams or in the editorial team - the pupils discussed, filmed, voted and took responsibility. The highlight was the final "council meeting" in the Coronation Hall of Aachen City Hall.
