Inter-/multiculturalism

We are a non-profit association recognised under German association law and registered as an organisation of migrants committed to development policy work in the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region since 2015.

Our members are mainly Hispanic migrants who want to contribute to German society. We work in the field of development policy and contribute from the perspective of our professions and from that of our cultural origins. Among our members there are biologists, lawyers, economists, psychologists, counsellors among other professions.

We work within development policy in areas such as sustainability, development, integration and intercultural openness. Within these pillars, we develop various projects that are intended to lead to a more attentive attitude towards world problems. Depending on the project, we are supported by ministries, municipalities or private organisations.

Shaping diversity with intercultural competence - this is the principle of the association Ethnologie in Schule und Erwachsenenbildung (ESE) e.V. (Ethnology in Schools and Adult Education), which was founded in 1992 by ethnologists and educators.

The basis for ESE's work is the scientific examination of approaches to teaching intercultural competence, intercultural education and intercultural upbringing, as well as the processing of ethnological material in order to be able to convey scientifically sound information about other cultures and about mechanisms of intercultural understanding in a way that is understandable to lay people.

With our offer in adult education, we address all people who have contact with people from different cultures in their everyday life and work and who would like more background information and competence to act.

In children's and youth education, we offer intercultural and global learning for different subject areas. Our units are suitable for project days, holiday programmes or short teaching units.
