During the Teach for Austria Week, Marisa Schiestl-Swarovski, Chair of the Swarovski Foundation and executives from business, politics and civil society visited Teach for Austria schools.
Together with Teach for Austria Fellows, Marisa planned an interactive lesson at one of the socially disadvantaged middle schools in order to promote more educational justice. This lesson gave exciting insights into their careers and showed the children how they can achieve their dreams through self-confidence, perseverance and commitment.
The children were excited to learn about the history of the Swarovski Foundation and the Swarovski Waterschool and shared how they learnt both were helping people and the planet.
