Clarity founds association for supporting gifted persons

“Do highly gifted children really need extra support, doesn’t everything simply fall into their laps anyway?” A question that many qualified pedagogues pose – but they are mistaken. Gifted children are often not recognized as such. And the fact that these talents wither away if ignored is not the only problem: many gifted children develop specific behavioral patterns as a result of being different, which often makes them loners. This, in turn, means they become outsiders in both educational and social circles. A talent can therefore turn into a disability.

Platform and mouthpiece

Clarity founded the non-profit organization “Human Brain” on October 24, with the objective of helping highly gifted children and young people to unfold their full potential. Above all, the association would like to raise the awareness of this subject and provide gifted children and their parents with an initial point of contact.  The vision: Create a platform for highly talented, like-minded individuals, which would allow them to communicate with one another and also stimulate and promote intellectual potential.  “Through the creation of a network between organizations, persons from the world of business and politics, and the talented children and their parents, we want to provide a point of contact for all involved, which can provide assistance during the search for a solution”, explained Christoph Pfeiffer, CEO of Clarity. An appropriate website is currently under development. We will let you know when the site goes online.

Members and supporters needed

At the moment, initial contact is being established with potential “supporters”. Are you interested in the work of the association, or would you like to become a member? The association “Human Brain” would love to welcome you as a new member! If you are interested, please contact miriam.weidler@clarity-ag.net directly.
