Update June 2022
B360 Annual Event 2022
How valuable and beautiful it is to meet in person and celebrate together was shown by the B360 annual event, which finally took place again on June 22 after a long three years.
It was with great pleasure that we welcomed around 140 guests from near and far to Schloss Sihlberg in Zurich.
A video edited by Fee Liechti documented that B360 was active despite Corona and the special challenges associated with it. “New ways forward” was our motto – virtual instead of on-site the answer.
A highlight and particularly applauded by the audience was the live presentation of the four guests from Namibia, who were the first to attend and successfully complete the newly developed "B360 Virtual Internships" program in 2021. "This trip has been an eye opener that there is more to the world than Namibia. Also it has shown me that, given an opportunity, grab it with both hands and give it your all, because in the end hard work pays." (Elizabeth Zola Iita, B360 Virtual Intern 2021).
"The professional preparation, the all-round support and the always pleasant and friendly contact convince us every time. With a lot of passion, patience and joy, the B360 team ensures that we as a host family can devote ourselves entirely to the cultural exchange." (André Ochsner, virtual and physical host family).
We would like to thank all our guests, donors, partners, volunteers, the hosts of Schloss Sihlberg, and everyone who contributed to the success of the event.
Below you will find a few impressions of the evening. Enjoy!
