Guests of the Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe have collected 25 cents for each solidarity meal and 10 cents for each solidarity muffin over the past two semesters for a MISEREOR project, that supports Syrian refugee children in Lebanon. The proceeds in the amount of 7,200 EUR were handed over by Michael Postert, Managing Director of the Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe, to Eli Kleffner from MISEREOR. At the same time the new project was officially launched: under the motto "Metabolism - turning food into fair jobs" we are collecting in the period 2019/20 for a project from "Brot für die Welt" that supports seamstresses in Nicaragua.

„It couldn´t be that hard!“ But sometimes the alleged pleasant student life can be a little bit overwhelming: upcoming exams are prone to cause stress; learning doesn’t leave room for leisure and recreation, and connecting with other colleagues is more difficult to manage as previously thought.
Besides the workshop we also offer individual, group, and family sessions on all topics regarding student life. For questions and further information we are at your disposal.
