This is me: Stefan Räther




Hej, this is me climbing a few months ago although I am very afraid of heights! Oh, I forgot to introduce myself! I am Stefan, 26 years old and was born and raised in Hamburg, Germany.

Before starting this minor program about Smart Sustainable Cities in Utrecht, I finished my 5th semester studying Industrial Business Administration with a minor in marketing at the University of Applied Sciences. My interest in sustainable topics started two years ago when I participated at the first youth climate conference in Schleswig-Holstein. Creating awareness and showing up measures of contribution to a more sustainable way of life the conference opened my eyes. I can make a difference! Since then I have been acting as a climate ambassador in my parish passing on my knowledge and experiences to younger generations and I even wrote a climate song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6RUDmzNOug).

In our multicultural and interdisciplinary group, I will take the role of the coordinator helping the team to organize and focus in the right manner. Even though I do not speak Valenciano, I hope that my ability to speak Spanish will be a useful contribution to the team.
Last but not least some facts about me: I love playing guitar and singing – music is my key to my everlasting happiness! I love exercising – climbing, squash and gymnastics give me the balance I need. Finally, I enjoy being a youth group leader in my perish in Hamburg – accompanying children and adolescents while growing up is so cool!
