Human rights

For the past twenty years, Vamos e.V. has been fighting for humane living and working conditions all over the world. In cooperation with partners in the South with whom we have a North-South-tandem cooperation, we distribute pamphlets, organize travelling exhibitions, as well as cultural and informational events about creating a more just North-South relationship. Our main topics are: the Millennium Development Goals and how to achieve them, working conditions in the international sporting goods industry and the cut flower industry of so-called third world countries, protection of the rainforest and of the rights of the indigenous peoples.

The Society for Development Cooperation in Solidarity Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania e. V. (GSE), as the state agency for global learning in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, is a provider of development education in schools and day care centres in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Using target group and experience-oriented methods, the topics of Global Learning / Education for Sustainable Development are discussed with children and conclusions are drawn about the everyday lives of girls and boys. In addition to the work with children in kindergartens and primary schools, we offer further training for educators (elementary and primary level), in which we present approaches and methods of Global Learning, which the participants can later use in their educational work and thus help to establish development policy topics in the educational work with children. Every year, the GSE participates in the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Development Days with its own projects.
