📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Hoch Drei e.V. is an educational organisation promoting political awareness and active citizenship. Our particular aim is to support diversity, gender democracy, participation, self-organization and social as well as personal responsibility. We mostly work with older children, teenagers and young adults during seminars of several days, focussing on civic education. We also offer international youth exchanges, mainly german-polish and organize trainings for professionals in the field of youth work. We strongly focus on inclusive education and do our best to encourage everyone, people with lower and better chances to succeed in this society, to participate in our events. Therefore over the last years we integrated many people with refugee background in our work. Our international youth exchanges aim to be a platform for exchange, for the development of tolerance, language skills and of self- confidence in an international environment. In our work we are supported by partner organisations from Potsdam, surroundings and abroad.We have two buildings called "Hochllandhaus" in the centre of Potsdam where our activities take place. The houses offer accommodation for up to 70 people. Furthermore, we cooperate with other educational institutions, which can use our premises for their own seminars. The buildings are located right on the waterside promenade of the river Havel. --- HochDrei e.V. ist eine außerschulische Jugendbildungsstätte, die sich für politische Bildung und bürgerschaftliches Engagement einsetzt. Unser Ziel ist es, Vielfalt, Geschlechtergerechtigkeit, Partizipation, Selbstorganisation und soziale ebenso wie persönliche Verantwortung zu fördern. Wir arbeiten meistens mit Kindern, Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen in mehrtätigen Seminaren der politischen Bildung. Darüber hinaus organisieren wir Jugendbegegnungen, hauptsächlich deutsch-polnische, und organisieren Fortbildungen für Fachkräfte der Jugendarbeit. Inklusion ist uns sehr wichtig und wir ermutigen Menschen mit ganz unterschiedlichen Chancen im Leben, an unseren Veranstaltungen teilzunehmen. Während der letzten Jahre haben wir zum Beispiel viele Menschen mit Fluchterfahrung in unsere Arbeit eingebunden. Auch unsere internationalen Jugendbegegnungen sollen eine Plattform für Austausch sein und dabei Toleranz und Vielfalt vermitteln. In unserer Arbeit werden wir von unseren Partnerorganisationen in Potsdam, Umgebung und internationalen Partnern unterstützt. Wir haben zwei Seminargebäude mit dem Namen „Hochllandhaus“ im Zentrum von Potsdam, ganz nah an der Havelpromenade. Dort finden normalerweise unsere Aktivitäten statt. Die Häuser bieten Unterbringung für bis zu 70 Personen. Darüber hinaus kooperieren wir mit anderen Einrichtungen, die unsere Bildungsstätte für ihre eigenen Seminare nutzen können.
