The Hagsfelder Werkstätten und Wohngemeinschaften Karlsruhe gGmbH (HWK) is a non-profit organization that specializes in the promotion and integration of people with disabilities. With a comprehensive range of vocational education and work, HWK offers diverse opportunities for people with intellectual, mental, or multiple disabilities.
The main mission of HWK is to enable people with disabilities to lead an independent life. This is achieved through the creation of jobs, housing, and support opportunities. Quality, sustainability, and inclusion are central values of the organization[1][2].
HWK is committed to ecological sustainability, particularly in horticulture, where ecological methods such as green manuring are applied[4]. Furthermore, the company is involved in social and ecological projects to promote an inclusive society[2].
HWK works closely with various organizations to promote inclusion and social participation. This includes participation in events such as the inclusion run and membership in associations like the Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband Baden-Württemberg[2].
Through the close collaboration of people with and without disabilities, HWK creates an inclusive work environment that fosters both professional and personal development.
