Impulse, Eindrücke, Perspektiven: Der Festivaltag im Fishbowl Wrap-up - U:FF 2026.

Impulses, Impressions, Perspectives: The Festival Day in a Fishbowl Wrap-up: An Other Format by Christina Zitzmann, Arina Zonner, Isa Jahnke, and Moritz Schmid at the University:Future Festival 2026. In the closing format of the festival day, we will reflect together on the diverse impressions and impulses surrounding the topic of Innovative Learning. In an open fishbowl discussion, keynote speakers, along with Isa Jahnke and Christina Zitzmann, will engage in conversation with students from the Bavarian State Student Council (BayStuRa) and the audience. What ideas and perspectives are we taking away from the festival day? What surprised us, inspired us, or perhaps left us with unanswered questions? Together, we will explore key insights from the day, reflect on them, and discuss them from different perspectives. The audience is invited to join us at any time to share their own observations, ideas, and experiences – as an open conclusion to an intensive festival day. // The sixth edition of the University:Future Festival took place from September 22-24.
