Paderborn University invites you to the first "edYOUcate@UPB". Under a new name, the previous "Teaching Day" will be continued as an established format and at the same time further developed: "edYOUcate@UPB" stands for an open, participatory exchange about good teaching - with teachers, students and staff alike. The "You" in the title emphasises the active role of all university members in shaping studies, teaching and university culture.
The "edYOUcate@UPB" 2026 will take place on Tuesday, 23 June from 10 am under the motto "University as a democratic space. Learning democracy - teaching democracy".
Democracy thrives on participation, responsibility and critical reflection. Universities are not only places of knowledge transfer, but also spaces for dialogue, debate and co-determination. The event will focus on the question of what contribution higher education can make to democracy education - in teaching, in everyday university life and in social responsibility.
