Who gets to shape the future? As Climate Week NYC brought together voices from across sectors and generations, students from Institut auf dem Rosenberg contributed their own questions and perspectives to the wider conversation around climate responsibility, technology and leadership. The topics opened up space to think critically about how societies respond to complex global challenges, who carries responsibility for change, and how younger generations can take part in shaping the decisions that will define the years ahead. The ideas and perspectives emerging from these conversations now continue at Institut auf dem Rosenberg, helping shape the next chapter of the Rosenberg Youth Manifesto and informing students’ work towards The Rosenberg House Davos 2027 during the World Economic Forum.
From New York to Institut auf dem Rosenberg to Davos, the dialogue keeps moving — carrying questions forward, developing new ideas and turning reflection into meaningful action. This continuum of engagement reflects a deliberate educational approach: one that positions students not as passive observers but as active participants in the global conversations that will shape their future. By connecting the immediacy of Climate Week NYC with the long-term strategic focus of the World Economic Forum in Davos, the school ensures that student inquiry is neither fleeting nor isolated. Instead, it becomes part of a sustained journey of intellectual and ethical development. The Rosenberg Youth Manifesto, already an evolving document, gains new depth from these experiences, while preparations for The Rosenberg House Davos 2027 provide a concrete platform for students to translate their reflections into actionable proposals. In this way, the school reinforces its commitment to nurturing leaders who are both globally minded and locally grounded.
