Ferdinand Pelzlmayer

His passion for educational issues has been with him since my studies in Basel and St. Gallen. Shortly after completing his teaching diploma and project work at the Institute for Philanthropy, he founded the mentoring program DreamTeam.

The program brings together young adults from universities and high schools with children in need for at least one year. DreamTeam not only encounters societal inequalities, but also reinforces the importance of social learning as an integral (future) part of any education. Right now he is on a sabbatical in Vienna with his family and he is trying to learn the jazz piano.
