Description

[Note: translated from German using Microsoft Translate]

The Academy for Self-Determined Education is the implementation of a great vision of enabling every young person to have their right to education.

We believe in equality as a basic principle that gives every individual access to free and self-determined education, regardless of gender, origin, age or social status.

By establishing self-determined education, we contribute to the promotion of free fundamental rights and democratic values.

The Academy for Self-Determined Education advises on the interests and well-being of young people and their right to education, free development of their personality and non-violence!

The Academy also works at the political level to:
-Initiate democratic processes that enable extracurricular education.
-Educate social pedagogues, teachers, youth welfare offices, school authorities and judges about self-determined education on the basis of scientific findings.
-Decriminalize intact and stable families.
-Establish a pluralistic and modern education system with the legalisation of extracurricular educational opportunities, such as in Denmark, Great Britain and Ireland.

The Academy for Self-Determined Education does not provide professional medical, psychological, therapeutic, legal or financial advice.
