KiZI - Child-friendly access to the Internet

As an educational scientist with a practical focus, it is important to me to create added value for science and society. So far, I have been able to work on research projects on early childhood and school education in various institutions. I am involved in the research project "Child-friendly access to the internet" to ensure that there are more websites and apps in the future that enable children to achieve a balance between protection, participation and empowerment in the digital space.

Digitale Dörfer Niedersachsen

I enjoyed growing up in a rural area, but a lot would have been easier if „Digitale Dörfer Niedersachsen“, the project I’m working for, had existed back then. That’s why I’m happy to connect the digital world with „village life“, offer low-threshold connection and to be part of the digital transformation.

I want to stand up for digital equality, and equal opportunities are particularly close to my heart. Therefore, it is a concern for me to do my part to compensate for systematic injustices for all individuals, especially for young people. At the Foundation, I work in the "KulturPass" project and advocate for the possibility of greater participation of young people in cultural opportunities. I also do the communication for the project "ich.digital - Mach mit im digitalen Leben".

Since I completed my master's degree in social sciences in 2019, I have been a permanent part of the foundation and implement projects at national and European level. Thereby, the fight against disinformation and hate speech on the net is especially close to my heart. I love working with different people from young to old and empowering them according to their individual skills and preferences. With my work, I want to support them in participating in (digital) society in a media-competent, critically-reflective and creative way and in actively shaping it.

From an early age, I have been fascinated by the digital world and have been involved with all technical innovations ever since, especially in the field of computer and environmental technology. However, i truly believe that what comes natural to the young age can be seen as an immense challenge for the older generations which they might not be able to overcome on their own. That's why I see a big opportunity of responsibility here and am happy to be able to support the "Digital mobil im Alter" team as well as the foundation with its overall activities.

Ich digital

For me, education means participation. The digital revolution also entails social challenges. As an industrialized country, Germany has a duty to enable all social groups to participate. I have been active in this area for many years and have worked with both refugees and young people from large housing estates in Berlin. What is particularly important to me is a growth mindset, i.e. the attitude that 'mistakes' are part of a learning process and are therefore welcome intermediate steps.

Growing up in a village and feeling that no one around you is like you. Since the advent of social media and digital media that connect us globally, thankfully this sensation belongs to the past. For me, one of the fantastic achievements of the digitalized world is that in particular marginalized groups have access to information, communities and participation. Since 2016 I have been working at the Digital Opportunities Foundation to achieve this, mostly developing and strengthening projects for young people.
