It is often not a lack of talent, but a non-academic family background that prevents young people from realising their opportunities to study. In OWL, talent scouts have been working in 55 cooperation schools since 2017 to break down these educational barriers and support talented young people on their way. Now 17 more schools from the region have been included in the programme.
