Every person is full of potential. We want children and young people to develop their potential – right from the start. Our vision is that they can develop according to their abilities and inclinations and find a good place in the world.
That is why we support projects that enable self-determined studying and discovery and create suitable framework conditions for sustainable learning.
Aspects of sustainable learning
Self-activity
Learning happens most sustainably from within. For it to take place at their own pace and rhythm, children need time – and people who trust them to do something

Relationship
To develop trust in themselves and the world, children need an appreciative counterpart. Attentiveness, interest and respect are the basis of a good education.
Prepared Environment
In order for independent learning to be possible, a wide range of experiences and suitable framework conditions are needed. This includes materials, projects and opportunities for research, discovery and experimentation.
