Exploring the AWI for a day
On thursday 28th of April 2022 we will have the nationwide future day. School kids leave their schools and visit workingplaces to gain insights in their possible future profession. AWI in Bremerhaven will participate and open their doors for you!
On 31st of March we will refresh our website and upload a registration form. Until then we try to organize more workshops to have a bigger offer to select from.
Every effort will be made to find a place for every registered child. The entries will then be randomly selected.
As the last years, we will do sameways: The working fields, that are mostly dominated by men will be shown to girls and vice versa.
