Stern singers from Wiesbaden demand: strengthen children's rights now!

On January 6, 2025, the star singers from Wiesbaden visited the Hessian Ministry of Culture, Education and Opportunities.

Minister Armin Schwarz received the star singer and thanked them for their commitment. The motto of the star singers 2025 reads: "Raise your voice! - Stern singing for children's rights".
