Digital awareness-raising campaign by the Robert Enke Foundation

For more than 11 years, the Robert Enke Foundation has been doing important work researching, treating and educating people about depression. The Foundation has already visited us several times as part of the "Robert-Enke Foundation on Tour" awareness-raising project. The awareness-raising project is carrying on even during the Coronavirus pandemic and a digital campaign will be held during our home match against Werder Bremen.

Online consultations due to the Coronavirus pandemic

As part of the "Robert Enke Foundation on Tour" project, the Foundation is offering interested parties and anyone affected by depression to use information platform to find out about depression and the help available to those suffering from it. In order to be able to make this offer available to people even during these difficult times, the project is temporarily being carried out in digital form. Interested parties and depression sufferers will have the opportunity to contact a member of the Foundation via an online platform from 15:00 to 18:00 CET on Sunday, 21.02.2021. To do so, you first enter a digital waiting room. You will then be taken to the chat room by one of the Foundation' employees. This gives you the opportunity to have a private conversation with the employee.

The Foundation employee can be reached three hours before kick-off on match day under the following link: https://zoom.us/j/92447504774.

In addition, the Robert Enke Foundation provides lots of information about the disease and the work done by the Foundation on its website. You can find the relevant information on the Foundation's homepage:

About the Foundation and other projects

Among other things, the Robert Enke Foundation supports measures and institutions that help with depression research, education and treatments. This includes promoting studies and projects dealing with the disease, organising events on the issue and supporting the institutions helping to carry out the work. The aim of the Foundation is to provide assistance to as wide a range of people affected by depression as possible.

In order to make it easier for outsiders to grasp and understand how facets of depression can feel, the "IMPRESSION DEPRESSION – a virtual reality experience from the Robert Enke Foundation" project was developed. The aim is to raise awareness of the disease among non-sufferers through a 15-minute VR scenario using virtual reality glasses, which shows facets of the emotions and thoughts that people experience in the world of depression.
