On 1 June, our new project to promote the EduLARP Minosia Labyrinth method on the theme of migration and inclusion will launch. Our accreditation under the Erasmus+ Youth Programme enables us to run several training seminars over the coming years, introduce new partner organisations to the method, and train trainers! We are currently looking for new partner organisations! Here is our call for applications on salto youth. The training course for education staff offers the opportunity to disseminate the Minosia Labyrinth method in European programme countries whilst simultaneously training new trainers in the method. To this end, we will proceed in three stages: first, weWeiterlesen

The project “Fostering the use of EduLARP methods on migration topics” was successfully completed at the end of 2025. In more than 100 mobility activities across four mobility programmes, we trained new trainers in the EduLARP method toolkit “Minosia Labyrinth” and provided further training to youth workers, teachers and trainers in the field of migration and inclusion. Reports and further resources can be found on the project page here and here.Weiterlesen

Unfortunately, not enough volunteers came together, so we had to postpone the construction days until next spring :-/   In spring 2025, the time had finally come: with the notary appointment, the purchase of Casa inDIpendenza in Valle Cannobina in northern Italy was completed. This has created a new non-commercial, commons-oriented place for regeneration, education, politics and culture. A working group from the Berlin-based association solar e.V. spent three years working on the project, searching for a suitable property, fundraising and creating the legal conditions for the project to be established. Numerous contacts were made in the small mountain village of Gurro and the surroundingWeiterlesen

The Training course project “Foster Young Life in Rural Areas” took place in 2023 and 2024 in Italy and Germany. Our aim was to explore and specify the topic of rural life from the point of view of the younger generation. With regard to changes of economic and agricultural systems, a strong exodus from the countryside to cities, and a subsequent dying-out of villages, the project team wanted to evaluate the current situation in remote mountain regions in three different EU countries, Italy, Austria, and Germany. A special emphasis was put on projects that counter these tendencies, offering social, cultural, environmental and political infrastructure andWeiterlesen

Drugs are part of everyday life. They are consumed across all population groups. The motives are diverse: pleasure, relaxation, performance enhancement, forgetting about everyday life, expanding consciousness, dealing with problems, drug use as a form of resistance against the logic of capitalism or even a bit of freedom and self-determination in a life full of constraints. When we talk about ‘drug problems’ in the global North, we usually mean the consequences of drug use for our society. We rarely consider the consequences of this drug use for the environment and the people in the global South who cultivate, process and bring these drugs to Europe.Weiterlesen

Im Onlineseminar am 09.12.23 (10:00 – 15:00) werden wir uns mit der kolonialen Vergangenheit beschäftigen. Unsere Leitfrage wird hierbei sein, inwieweit koloniale Strukturen, Denkweisen und Abhängigkeiten noch heute wirkmächtig sind und Einfluss auf die Gesellschaft, Politik und Ökonomie nehmen. Anhand von Beispielen der Vergangenheit wie Gegenwart werden wir in verschiedenen praktischen Methoden die Verknüpfungen der Zeiten erkunden. Das Präsenzseminar, am 16.12.23 (11:00 – 16:00) in Berlin, befasst sich mit der Frage, was die Entwicklungen und Widerstandsbewegungen im Sudan in den letzten Jahren mit der Kolonialzeit zu tun haben. Außerdem versuchen wir zu beantworten, mit welchen geostrategischen Interessen ehemalige Kolonialmächte und Akteure aus dem globalen NordenWeiterlesen
