The "Economy in Transformation" program of the Dr. Hans Riegel Foundation is a central component of its mission to promote education as well as research and development in this area.
In view of the constantly advancing global changes and the increasing complexity of economic interrelationships, it is crucial to develop and implement innovative approaches in order to master the challenges of tomorrow.
Our concept for the Business program area is based on different levels of education, from secondary school to university and business-related research. Through targeted projects, we strive to support pupils, students and scientists alike and provide them with the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in a dynamic economic environment. A deeper understanding and continuous growth of knowledge in the field of economics is instrumental in developing innovative solutions and making informed decisions that ultimately advance the overall economy and promote its sustainable development. In this context, we are in favor of a comprehensive curricular integration of the school subject "Economics".
In view of the global challenges and the rapidly changing economic sector, it is essential that our projects are flexible, future-oriented, interdisciplinary and practical. Our program in the field of economics therefore focuses on a holistic approach that not only imparts theoretical knowledge, but also enables practical experience and supports subject-specific and interdisciplinary research in the economic sciences. Communicating the results generated to specific target groups is a central aspect of the program and contributes to social development and economic progress.
