Commitment to volunteering

On 1 October 2014, Prof. Dr. Dubravko Radic was made an honorary member of the Eastern Europe Institute (DOI) board of trustees in Dresden. The DOI is a charity that promotes the cultural and political exchange between Germany and various countries in Central and Eastern Europe.

In keeping with the motto of the Year of Science 2013, "Demographische Chance" ('The demographic opportunity'), Leipzig University's price and service management group and the service management faculty decided to forego themselves a Christmas party in order to give their time, rather than money. On 17 December 2013, the staff visited the geriatrics center in Zwenkau to bake biscuits and sing Christmas carols with the patients there. The idea for this volunteering stint emerged during a Fraunhofer MOEZ cooperation with Gerinet Leipzig in the course of a project on "Lokalen Allianzen für Menschen mit Demenz" ('Local alliances for people with dementia').
