Since July 2023, Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has been focusing in the new Forum Bellevue on the Transformation of Society on the topics that will define the future of German society, the profound transformations and changes that our country is currently experiencing. The Forum is being held in cooperation with the ZEIT STIFTUNG BUCERIUS.

With the Forum Bellevue on the Transformation of Society, the Federal President wants to create space for discourse on the decisive questions arising given the social change unfolding in our liberal democracy. Together with the ZEIT STIFTUNG BUCERIUS, the Federal President is thus regularly inviting German and international guests from the fields of science, politics, business, culture and civil society to Schloss Bellevue.

Federal President Steinmeier is focusing here on various aspects of the transformation process. These include opportunities and challenges of using artificial intelligence, education and training for the changing world of work, as well as the global dimension of climate change. The aim is to find new ways of turning concern about our future into a shared endeavour to prepare for the future.
