During the years of the Nazi regime, graduates of the University of World Trade (Hochschule für Welthandel) – the institution that would later become WU – were stripped of their academic degrees. So far, these academic degrees have not been formally restored to their rightful holders.

The concert will include a symbolic act where these academic degrees will be restored to their holders.
