Education & Family

We are convinced: education is not only the foundation for a self-determined life, but also a prerequisite for prosperity and the future viability of our society. That is why the Dieter Schwarz Foundation is committed to equal educational opportunities. The goal is for people of all ages, regardless of their background, to experience genuine educational participation and fully realize their potential for development.


The institutions we support offer a wide range of programs for families and provide targeted assistance to children and young people — for example in developing language skills or fostering enthusiasm for the natural sciences. Together, we are laying the foundation for successful educational biographies. Our foundation’s commitment also includes those who accompany these educational paths: pedagogical professionals and leaders, whose qualification and continuing education we support.


The ZUKÜNFTE magazine presents people and initiatives that actively contribute to a more equitable and innovative educational landscape.
