The Evangelisches Bildungswerk Duisburg (EBW) is a central educational institution in the Kirchenkreis Duisburg, which provides a wide range of educational offers for all age groups - from early childhood care to educational support for young people. The EBW operates daycare centers and family centers, offers open all-day care at elementary schools, as well as language and integration courses for immigrants. The offer is supplemented by parent and family education programs that are designed to strengthen parenting skills and support families in their parental responsibility. In addition, the EBW supports volunteers in the Bundesfreiwilligendienst and in the Freiwilliges Soziales Jahr, which also promotes the social participation and personal development of young people[1][2][4].
The main mission of the EBW is to understand and promote education as a key to social participation and co-determination in a democratic society. The support of families is seen as a central basis for enabling children and young people to have optimal development opportunities. A special focus is on intercultural education, which promotes social understanding and openness with courses such as the "Interkulturellen Knigge", parent forums and lectures, in order to reduce prejudices and strengthen respectful coexistence[2][4].
Sustainability is reflected in the EBW primarily in the promotion of social sustainability through integrative educational offers, the expansion of family-centered support services, and the support of people in difficult life situations. By creating diverse opportunities for participation, the EBW contributes to social inclusion and strengthens both social cohesion and individual development opportunities across generations[1][2].
The EBW is present in various districts of Duisburg as well as in decentralized communities and works closely with local partners to provide educational opportunities in a needs-oriented and low-threshold manner. The organization positions itself as a modern, committed educational actor that combines pedagogical quality with social and intercultural commitment.
