our values
Learning by Doing
We believe learning does not only take place in the classroom. Therefore, we strive for our students to have a high degree of reality in their training. Through exposure to real world issues and a solution oriented mindset, students grow their capacities by reflecting on their lived experience – this is what we call “Learning by Doing”.
think global
act local
We believe it’s important to take a stand to the global reality and its politics, its history and future. Not just through studying and discussions, but also through the concept of “learn to travel, travel to learn”, where we explore different realities, analyse them and put them in a global perspective. Based on our experiences and new understanding, we organise or participate in local actions aimed at tackling the climate crisis, social injustices and other issues in order to create positive change in the world.
international community
At our learning centre, you will live, learn and work with people from all over the world. By sharing ideas and experiences, we together create a rich cultural exchange that leads to a deeper understanding of the world and its people.
Living as a collective, students and teachers share the responsibility of running the school and activities together while using consensus-based decision-making when implementing new ideas or developments for the future.

but life itself”

student experiences
"Our main achievement working in the project was the construction of preschools in the area around DAPP college. With fundraising and help from the community, we managed to build 6 structures"
"I decided to continue working on what I learned from all of the experiences. It was a life-changing experience where I developed myself and discovered what I want to do in the future."
"This programme gave me an amazing experience. I had the opportunity to learn more about other cultures, how to work in a team and I learned to handle complicated situations and how to deal with them dynamically."
"We worked with a pedagogy that understands the necessity of having different teaching approaches for different students, that pushes them to be conscious and critical about what they study, and that emphasizes the ‘learning by doing concept.’’
