Experiencing democratic education - an important part of training

At Biohealth, our trainees not only learn the basics of their profession, but also actively engage with current social issues. As a company, we see it as our responsibility to support young people in their democratic and social education.

As part of this initiative, we regularly offer our trainees the opportunity to take part in projects, workshops and exhibitions that deal with socially relevant topics such as migration, democracy or digital media skills. We would like to present the most recently attended activities here.

How do deep fakes actually work? What opportunities does artificial intelligence offer - and what are the dangers? Our trainees were able to explore these questions in April 2025 in an exciting workshop on the topic of "Deep Fake & AI".

The workshop began with an introduction to how modern AI systems work and the technology behind deep fakes. Participants learned how algorithms can be used to create deceptively real videos and audio that make people say or do things that never happened.

The practical examples from politics, entertainment and social media were particularly impressive. In small groups, the trainees analyzed manipulated videos and learned how to recognize fakes - for example, by unnatural movements or small inconsistencies in the sound. Special tools for detecting deep fakes were also used.

The workshop impressively demonstrated that artificial intelligence offers enormous opportunities, but also entails social responsibility. Our trainees not only gained technical knowledge, but also developed an awareness of the importance of media skills in the digital age.

At a time when disinformation, polarization and social tensions are on the rise, it is more important than ever to empower young people. We want to instill the following values in our trainees beyond their technical training:

• Critical thinking: Questioning information, recognizing fake news.
• Empathy and a change of perspective: understanding other people's stories
• Democratic competence: actively participating and taking responsibility.

Our trainees are the skilled workers of tomorrow - and at the same time the people who will help shape our society. By promoting their education beyond the workplace, we are investing in an open, democratic future.

Social responsibility does not end at the warehouse door or in the office. We are convinced that giving young people room for education, exchange and critical thinking not only strengthens the company, but society as a whole.
