The HWG LU took part in the "Show your face for democracy" project: on May 27, 2025, anyone who wanted to take part could have their picture taken in the "open-air studio" on campus. Pupils from the surrounding schools, students, education staff and employees of the university and nearby companies seized the opportunity and took part in the photo campaign at HWG LU. The resulting portraits are now online on the university's diversity website and a selection will also be exhibited at the university.
The campaign is part of a nationwide poster campaign to promote democracy and diversity led by photographer Thomas Brenner, in which well over 4,000 people in Rhineland-Palatinate, Hesse, North Rhine-Westphalia and Saarland have taken part so far.
The event was organized by the university's Diversity Manager, Petra Schorat-Waly, with the kind support of BASF SE.
