On August 12, 2011, the "Ideas for the Republic of Education" award ceremony by the initiative "Germany - Land of Ideas" took place on the youth research ship. We would like to thank everyone involved, including representatives of the Ministry of Education and Research (Dr. Rösler), Vodafone Germany Foundation (Dr. Speich), G-Elit, Berlin (Mr. Bartholdi), District Mayor Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg (Dr. Schulz), Parity welfare association, LV Berlin (GF Menninger). Above all, we would like to thank the group of students from Windhoek, Namibia, who were working as researchers on the ship that day! Our photographer was Stefan Melchior from Berlin.
