Welthaus der Dioezese Innsbruck

Welthaus Bildung is the educational department in the Welthaus Innsbruck, the network for the world church and development cooperation of the Diocese of Innsbruck (Austria). As part of their annual program, they offer content-related advice on the subject of intercultural encounters and intercultural learning for pupils, teachers and trainers in adult education. They mediate speakers from other cultures and conduct workshops and advanced training themselves. As part of their project Lebensbilder (images of life), they offer once a year for one month each the opportunity to meet with speakers from countries in which the Brother and Sister in Need Innsbruck (BSI) or Caritas Innsbruck International (CII ) Promote development projects. The life experiences of the guests are the focus of the Life Pictures project. They tell of their life, their country and their culture from their own personal perspective. The hosts in Tyrol (school classes or adult groups) must prepare for the visit so that the encounter succeeds and the guests are welcomed into a climate of hospitality.
