About the volunteering opportunity
Werte (er)leben is an educational project for children and young people in the seventh to ninth grades which provides
participants a basic understanding of the importance of personal and social values and increases their awareness of values. In three workshop modules, they learn what values are and recognize their own personal values. They immerse themselves in worlds of values and experience first-hand how values shape the way we live together. Together, they work out which values are important to them in the community and discuss the basic values of our free and democratic society.
