We live in a time of upheaval, marked by major cultural, social and ecological challenges. However, the complicated global conditions we are facing today have not simply fallen from the sky, but are the result of human activity over the past centuries. Shaping the future means starting in the here and now, taking responsibility, asking the right questions and testing new ways of dealing with nature and mankind. In order to do this, we need places in which people can come together to think freely and work together interactively and interdisciplinarily. In this sense, ibugi offers a space for its staff and individual and institutional cooperation partners to ask these crucial and forward-looking questions in a new way and to jointly develop meaningful approaches in the fields of education and social innovation.
