Our school has been in existence since 1896, making it one of the oldest German schools abroad in the world. It is a public school supported by Germany both financially and in terms of staff, and is committed to teaching the German and Greek languages and German and Greek educational values.

The DSA is a school and meeting place for Greeks, Germans living in Athens, Austrians and Swiss, for bicultural families and for all those who have a special interest in the German language and culture.

The DSA offers its graduates access to colleges, universities and apprenticeships through recognised school-leaving qualifications.

For us, the students are the centre of attention. They can live and learn under "one roof" at the DSA from kindergarten to graduation. In doing so, it is a fundamental concern of ours to educate them to become independent personalities.

To this end, teachers from all areas (kindergarten, preschool, primary school, secondary school I - II) and all staff work together.

The office of information Nicaragua is one of the oldest organizations of the Nicaraguan solidarity movement. The history of the office of information was until the 90s closely related with the economyof the solidarity movement to Central America and especially to Nicaragua. Today our work concentrates on the area of development education  and information for Latin America and on thecooperation and support of base initiatives in Nicaragua. We provide information, publish publications, provide educational materials, maintain a third world archive, mediate examiners, organize visits with Latin-American activists and organize actions, series of events, school workshops and seminars. Within the framework of several projects educational materials were developed on subjects like economy, migration, climate change and environmental justice, human rights and social movements as well as colonialism and racism. Besides the educational materials we also offer disseminator courses. For several years we also offer successful workshops on the above mentioned subjects for young people . We use interactive and participative exercises of global learning, so that young people can approach appropriately to the subject of the workshops. Moreover we refer to the interests and experiences of the participants and put a main focus on the learning. Our work focuses on fun, the connections with the life and reality of young people, reflection as well as the ability to own judgment and action.
