ABOUT US
weltgewandt (“open to the world”). Institute for Intercultural Political Education invites you to discover the world outside your door, next door and far away and to grow from it. weltgewandt offers learning. Not in the sense of education, but as an encouragement to think for oneself. Not as frontal teaching as often in school, but with creative methods. The preferred topics are well as support for the so-called disadvantaged peeconomy/social issues, digitalisation, culture of remembrance, integration. Information is nevertheless not neglected. The focus is on diversity of perspectives and debate, empowerment, contact and encounter as ople. The services offered by weltgewandt are aimed at people from all social and cultural backgrounds. We want to encourage people to discover their creative powers, to experience self-efficacy and to stand up for democracy, justice, freedom, tolerance and human rights.
