"In addition to comprehensive context knowledge of Europe, NRW enables Europe to debate through innovative and interactive methods (e.g. the voting tool Mentimeter or video recordings) and the regular invitations of external speakers, a practical orientation and contacts to politics and civil society organisations, which are not only valuable for the personal development of the students, but can also be of importance for later professional success."
Student Council Social Sciences, University of Duisburg-Essen (2019)
"The time on stage and thus in public to present arguments developed on one's own responsibility decisively and to be able to react promptly to counterarguments brings security and self-confidence and will positively influence the personality development of the students".
Student Council Social Sciences, University of Duisburg-Essen (2019)
"The Jean-Monnet Professor Michael Kaeding of the University of Duisburg-Essen wins this year's 'PADEMIA Teaching Award' for his NRW-wide cross-university debate initiative NRW debates Europe and his outstanding achievements in the field of teaching throughout Europe".
Jury of the PADEMIA Teaching Award (2016)
"NRW debattiert Europa convinces through its versatility, the ability to think independently, the increase of argumentation skills and eloquent appearance, its competitive character and its clear practical relevance. Students learn competences that have a strong influence on their personal development and sharpen their political science skills, which are often neglected in conventional courses."
Dean of Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Duisburg-Essen, Dr. Solveig Randhahn (2019)
"I am delighted that this profitable format has been awarded the PADEMIA Prize. At the closing ceremony, I was able to see for myself the passion with which students debate European issues. The project successfully contributes to the networking of students from NRW".
State Secretary for Europe and Media of the State of NRW, Dr. Marc Jan Eumann (2016)
