Giving impulses, encouraging reflection -
both locally and internationally

With a variety of projects, we support the educational treatment of group-based enmity, right-wing extremism, Islam-based extremism and conspiracy narratives. In our projects, we offer advice, further training, human rights oriented political education or intensive educational procedures. In some, we are only active in one Berlin district or one federal state, while in others we work nationwide or with partners from all over the EU. This enables us to respond to the respective requirements in a needs-based manner and to contribute our expertise from different regions and phenomenon areas.
