Ecological and political education: HÖB e. V.
Papenburg, Germany
1 , ClosedProject description
The Historisch-Ökologische Bildungsstätte Emsland in Papenburg e. V. (HÖB) is a recognized education center of the state of Lower Saxony, which has over a hundred beds and thus combines "living and learning under one roof". The central goal of the HÖB's educational work is the free development of the personality and participation in shaping society. For this purpose the HÖB offers a varied seminar program. The topics are environmental education and ecological debate, politics/history/economy, organizational development and leadership, young adults, education, body/mind/soul, art/culture/creativity. The seminars are aimed at a broadly diversified target group. As an educational institution, it is important to inspire young people for political education and socio-political interest. This is reflected not only in the educational work, but also in the support of volunteers through appropriate offers.
