Diversity of Horses - with Katharina Roth and Thomas Casper in conversation with Christoph Hess

🎙️ New podcast episode: “Diversity of Horses” – a week for the future of the horse in our society
In this episode, Christoph Hess talks to Katharina Roth (architect, horse lover, chairwoman of the association "Diversity Horse") and Thomas Casper (director of the Birkhof stud farm) about an initiative that goes far beyond equestrian sports.

The two are passionate about a grand vision:
The horse should once again have a firm place in the heart of our society.

To this end, they are calling for the "Diversity of Horses" action week in September – a project that aims to bring together a wide variety of horse people: breeders, riders, businesses, schools, riding clubs, therapy centers – and everyone who wants to make a difference with horses. Save the date: September 14–21, 2025

📌 Topics of the episode:
🐴 How the “Diversity Horse” initiative came about
🌍 Why the horse is in danger of being marginalized in society
💡 What everyone can do during the action week – from star rides to pony days in kindergarten
🎯 Why political action is needed to strengthen the horse in the long term
🧠 And what it means to truly implement visions

A podcast about responsibility, passion – and a movement that gives hope.
