This toolbox has the aim to unleash civil initiative with competency based learning approaches. We think, that learning and education can much more contribute to a better world than they do with a only focus on knowledge dissemination. Education understood as empowerment means to contribute to lifelong learning and to help people to apply their power and skills for something purposeful and for the public good. It is a collaborative task of families and schools, initiatives other organizations providing learning.
