The Forum Recht Foundation’s first study tour on the topic of „The Rule of Law in Germany“ took place from October 19 to 25, 2025. The central theme of the tour was the rule of law in all its dimensions—from the past to the present.
What does the law have to do with everyday life? Whether at school, at work, in our homes, during elections, or online—the law shapes our daily lives. Many decisions that affect us are based on rules and laws. The digital participation platform of the Forum Recht Foundation invites you to join the conversation about your experiences with the law and the rule of law.
On Wednesday, November 12, 2025, at 7:00 p.m., the Forum Recht Foundation invites you to a discussion titled „Youth in Court: The Purpose and Limits of Punishment“ as part of the „Let’s Talk About Law“ series in Karlsruhe. This time, the guest speaker is juvenile court judge and author Dr. Alessandro Bellardita.
