Germany
participants
The goal was to impart knowledge about different cultural topics like Europe, Germany and Cologne to the internationals. The participants also got to know new people and deepened the connection with people they already knew by participating as a team.
The participants arrived and split up into teams of 3 to 6 people. We had 6 categories of questions with 5 questions each. We asked some questions about Europe, including questions about the upcoming European election in order to motivate the internationals to go vote. We also had questions about German culture and German geography to impart knowledge to them about the country they are currently living in. To show them the German culture we also had questions regarding German songs and the German language. Since we are in Cologne, we included questions about Cologne and "Kölsch", the local dialect as well as the local type of beer. We ended with a category about paintings and their paintors to include some general cultural knowledge. To make it more interesting, we already counted the points after each round while continuing with the nexte questions. Everybody really enjoyed the different topics we covered. In the end, the winner team got some small prices.
