Interview with Hanspeter Kraft from May 7, 2019

Since the start of the "GGG Digi-Coach" project in December 2018, Hanspeter Kraft has been involved in the Gundeldingen library on Tellplatz for an afternoon once a week. He welcomes those seeking advice and advises them on computers, programs, mobile phones, tablets, online forms and much more.

Hanspeter Kraft is a retired mathematician from the University of Basel. His connection to the digital world has existed throughout his professional life. He explains that as a GGG Digi-Coach you shouldn't just have an affinity for today's technology - you also have to like people. The topics are diverse, he not only advises senior citizens, younger men and women also come to him.

It is important to him to take away the uncertainty of those seeking advice and to strengthen their confidence in their own knowledge. Sometimes he closes elementary gaps in order to get people out of a possible defensive position in the digital world. He lets everyone do it himself, only sits there in an advisory capacity. And he grins: Women are a bit braver! You dare to ask.
