In preparation for the English Abitur 2025, we are thrilled to welcome acclaimed author Sefi Atta for an online event! Atta will discuss her compelling short story “Green”, which is one of the eight stories for the Abitur topic On the Move: Migration and Cross-Cultural Encounters in Baden-Württemberg.

This is a unique opportunity for students to engage directly with the author, gain insights into her perspective, and explore the themes and ideas in her story.
