Together Digital

Digital together

The project: Students developed the idea of supporting senior citizens in using digital devices. This led to a monthly meeting in the Sparkasse campus lounge in collaboration with the community foundation - accompanied by coffee and biscuits. The response has been great - 20-30 senior citizens regularly take part.

The Impact: The project sustainably improves the digital participation of older people. Personalised support in the use of smartphones and other technical devices reduces fear of contact and increases social participation. At the same time, students take on social responsibility.

The project took 1st place in the Student competition for the best student impact project 2025/26.
