German Academic Exchange Service
We have produced a magazine about the DAAD university programs for refugees that shows how integration at German universities succeeds – with real stories, clear facts and strong images.
How does integration work?
For seven years, the DAAD’s university programs for refugees have enabled young people from crisis regions to study in Germany – and build a new life.
The 100-page anniversary magazine is divided into four chapters: “Arriving”, “Studying”, “Life” and “Working”. In each section, we tell the story of a participant – close, open, precise. Renowned reporter Linda Tutmann accompanied the project as external editor-in-chief, supported by the program participants themselves, who contributed to the texts and editorial concept.
The photo spreads by Julian Baumann, Tanja Kernweiss and Urban Zintel give the magazine its own visual character. The reports are complemented by compact fact pages that show what universities, teachers and students achieve together.
A magazine that makes commitment visible, explains complexity – and shows how integration can actually succeed.
