Our work

Work in Germany

In Berlin and across Germany we combine global learning with empowerment: education projects in schools, spaces of encounter for the African diaspora and their neighbours, advice for refugees and migrants, and fiscal sponsorship for young initiatives.

Programme 1 · Global learning, educational justice and exchange

Education

Global learning, educational justice and cross-cultural exchange: in Germany and Uganda we dismantle historical biases and make learning accessible – for school classes, young people and the wider public.

General education work

Ongoing workshops, further-education modules and political-education seminars for the wider public in Germany – on global justice, anti-racism, colonial history and the Sustainable Development Goals. On request we design formats for schools, associations and educational institutions.

Hands-on advice for migrants and refugees on asylum and residence procedures and administrative processes: we help people understand letters and decisions, keep track of deadlines, prepare applications and find the right authorities. For legal representation we refer to specialised lawyers and counselling services.
