Creative learning in workshops

Our workshops foster creative and solution-oriented action with head, heart, and hands. Whether photography, rap, theater, or programming: in small groups, you'll create your own works on socially relevant topics. Barrier-free access and diverse seminar formats invite you to explore new perspectives and develop your own projects in our key areas:

Learning through international encounters

In our international workshops, you'll work creatively with peers from other countries. You'll exchange ideas and experience democratic action through active collaboration. The Erasmus+ program supports us in this endeavor. We work within European networks and have been part of the "„Quality Label for Youth Centres“of the Council of Europe, which stands for human rights education.

Embrace diversity, break down barriers

Together with you, we break down barriers and create respectful spaces for collaborative learning. We promote diversity and inclusion. Our goal is an accessible learning environment that considers different life situations and needs. Everyone should be able to learn effectively and participate with us.

Strengthening children's and youth participation, in Berlin and in the EU

Participation is very important to us. Children's and youth parliaments and youth advisory boards from Berlin's districts meet with us regularly. We actively participate in Youth Dialogue of the European Union. For example, we invite politicians to discussions with young people. As a municipal project focused on youth dialogue, we are represented in the National Working Group.

Open Educational Resources (OER)

Our educational work also involves the creation of open educational resources (OER), often in collaboration with partners. We would like to share our best-practice experiences as Open Educational Resources.

For groups

We look forward to collaborating with your group of children, teenagers, and young adults aged 8 to 27, whom you support as an independent organization. Our goal is a reliable and long-term partnership. A cooperation agreement will provide the foundation for jointly shaping educational processes and sustainably empowering participants.
