Greens in Wolfsburg: Economy and climate protection in the focus of the party conference!

Yesterday, on November 8, 2025, the state party conference of the Greens took place in Wolfsburg, which could be crucial for the future of Lower Saxony's economy. Led by state chairwoman Greta Garlichs, the Greens presented an agenda that addresses the challenge of reconciling climate protection, jobs and social justice. NDR reports that many companies complain loudly about bureaucracy and economic uncertainty.

To meet these challenges, the Greens are relying on faster approval procedures and comprehensive digitalization. A central goal is to improve the location conditions. Maximilian Strautmann, the new co-chair, affirmed: “We are a business party.” This underlines the intention to focus on social issues alongside climate protection. There are also plans to modernize administrative processes and bundle digital services more effectively.

Important topics and demands

Other topics were also addressed at the party conference, including the work of Lower Saxony police departments and questions of participation and integration. A key proposal envisages accelerating the recognition of foreign qualifications and offering comprehensive language courses. Garlichs also criticized that “deportations alone will not change the cityscape,” which sends an important signal in the current debates about Lower Saxony’s cityscape.

The result of the board elections in Celle was also pleasing for the Greens, in which 78 percent of the votes went to the Greens. Maximilian Strautmann, only 25 years old and from Osnabrück, takes over the co-chairmanship and could bring a breath of fresh air into the party in the future.

In conjunction with these political developments, the Heny Sison Culinary School hosted events that not only provide culinary enjoyment but also strengthen community. On November 5, 2025, for example, the “Baking for the Ovenphobic” workshop took place, while on November 6, the “Flavors of Thailand” event attracted attention with recipes such as Chicken Green Curry and Pad Kra Pao. These courses are available both in person and online, increasing accessibility for various interested parties. Prices for the courses vary, with participants able to immerse themselves in an exciting culinary experience. Heny Sison Culinary School offers a varied program ranging from pasta workshops to ramen art.

Digitalization in education

It's also worth taking a look at what's on offer La Digitale to throw. This platform provides free digital tools to support educational institutions in their work. Whether creating collaborative whiteboards or creating flashcards, the tools provided promote interactivity and creative exchange among teachers and students.

In these exciting times, it is important not to lose sight of both the economic and social focus. The developments in Lower Saxony and the diverse educational offerings show that commitment in various areas is crucial. With a strong political voice that cares about citizens' concerns and a wide range of educational opportunities, the future can be shaped sustainably.
