Impfung
Warum lassen sich manche Menschen nicht impfen? Weltweit haben Impfprogramme immer wieder zu hitzigen Debatten geführt.
Beginnend in Deutschland wird MULTIPLIERS sich mit verschiedenen Impfprogrammen befassen, wie z. B. dem Programm gegen das Humane Papillomavirus (HPV), das sich speziell an Jugendliche richtet.
Unsere Schüler*innen werden verschiedene Perspektiven kennenlernen, einschließlich der beiden oft entgegensätzlichen Ziele des Schutzes der öffentlichen Gesundheit und der gleichzeitigen Autonomie des Einzelnen. Zu den Aktivitäten gehören Treffen mit Expert*innen und Wissenschaftler*innen, z. B. vom Universitätsklinikum Bonn, das Sammeln von Daten und Informationen und die Diskussion über Nutzen und Wirkung von Impfungen.
