As an ‘MSI-ler’ – that’s what we call students on the Management of Social Innovation programme at Munich University of Applied Sciences – I am passionate about innovative solutions that combine ecological, economic and, in particular, social compatibility. My degree programme gives me the opportunity to work intensively on shaping changes that have a long-term impact and make a positive contribution to society.

I spent a formative six months in the beautiful city of Aarhus in Denmark – a country where social cohesion is a top priority. The innovative, socially orientated approaches that I was able to get to know there broadened my view of sustainable change and cemented my enthusiasm for Denmark. For me, Danish society is a role model for how transformation can succeed on many levels.

As a community member of CRITICAL FRIENDS, a platform for exchange on forward-looking and transformative topics, I am constantly learning and getting involved in topics such as promoting a circular economy. The dialogue with like-minded people who are open and at the same time critical of each other is a great enrichment for me on a personal and professional level and also strengthens my commitment to modem conclusa. With a fresh perspective, team spirit and curiosity, I like to bring in new ideas that focus on ecological and social responsibility.
