More Respect – Dialogue with Female and Male Students
At the invitation of the Friends of the Institute for German Studies, the former Federal President Christian Wulff urged more respect in the dialogue with young people.
“We have to show respect in dealing with each other. There is a lot of talk about a lack of respect, but it is becoming increasingly rare,” said Wulff before around 120 guests at the event entitled “Mehr Respekt – Dialog mit Schülerinnen und Schülern” (More Respect – Dialogue with Female and Male Students) organised by the Friends of the Institute for German Studies at Braunschweig University of Technology.
It is important to take young people seriously, Wulff continued. However, this does not only apply to politicians, but also to family members, teachers and friends. The former Federal President called for more openness and willingness to listen. “We often talk at each other instead of with each other,” Wulff said. “However, it is only in dialogue that genuine understanding can arise.”
Wulff also addressed the current challenges facing politicians. “Politics has become more complex,” he said. “There are more and more stakeholders and interests that have to be taken into account.” This makes it more difficult to make decisions that are accepted by everyone. However, it is precisely now that politicians need the support of young people.
“You are the future of our country,” Wulff said to the students in the audience. “Your voice is important and we need your commitment to shape the future.” The former Federal President encouraged the students to get involved politically and to have their say in society.
The event was moderated by Prof. Dr. habil. Susanne Rode-Breymann, Director of the Institute for German Studies at Braunschweig University of Technology. She emphasized the importance of dialogue between generations. “We need to learn from each other and to understand different perspectives,” Rode-Breymann said. “Only then can we create a respectful and just society.”
The event was attended by students from Braunschweig University of Technology, the Gymnasium Kleine Burg and the Wilhelm-Gymnasium.
