Shining a light on Germany, the German Language and German Studies in South Australia
|
|
How can we ensure the future of German language teaching in schools and universities? How can we put the German cultural roots of South Australia in focus? These questions were the focus of the “German Round Table”-Meeting on February 27, 2019, in Adelaide. More than 20 guests, including the ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany, Dr. Anna Prinz, Susanne Körber (Cultural Attaché, German Embassy Canberra) and Katharina McGrath (Director, DAAD Information Centre Sydney) followed an invitation from the organisers, Honorary Consul James Porter and Dr. Stefan Hajduk (Head of Department of German Studies, University of Adelaide). The meeting concluded with establishing a work group that will meet regularly and organise events to enhance the visibility of the German language and culture in South Australia.
