The aim of Bayer's
sponsoring activities in the field of education is to arouse and encourage the interest of young people in the natural sciences. The company's commitment to school education in Germany is based on three pillars: the "Bayer Science & Education Foundation", "Baylabs" (chemical laboratories especially for schoolchildren), and support for “Jugend forscht" (a research competition for schoolchildren). Internationally, Bayer has established the "Making Science Make Sense" program.
