Schülerwettbewerb zur politischen Bildung 2026

An annual international German‑language school competition on political education for pupils working on project-based tasks across multiple age groups. Participants develop and submit project work according to the provided task packages and Werkstückbeschreibungen. Submissions are made via an online portal, with a postal option for one analogue work (a game).

Pupils in different school grades: younger tasks for Stufe 4–8, older tasks for Stufe 8–12, and final‑year classes (Jahrgangsstufen 12 oder 13) which may only select the ‘Politik brandaktuell’ theme; Förderschulen and 8. Klassen have free choice of age levels.

Register projects and fill in the project report digitally in the competition online portal (portal opens 2026-09-07); upload permitted file formats (max 500 MB) or, for the game, submit digitally and optionally send the analogue game by post using a downloadable label.
