Inter­na­tio­na­les Begeg­nun­gs­zen­trum — ibz

With its work, the ibz con­tri­bu­tes to a cos­mo­po­li­tan soci­e­ty in whi­ch a pea­ce­ful, res­pect­ful and soli­da­ry coe­xis­ten­ce of Karl­sru­he resi­dents from all over the world is pos­si­ble.
Our vision is a com­mon “we”. A “we” that ena­bles all peo­ple — regar­d­less of their cul­tu­ral bac­k­gro­und and reli­gi­o­us con­vic­tions — to par­ti­ci­pa­te soci­a­l­ly and to sha­pe a demo­cra­tic soci­e­ty. This also inclu­des a clear stan­ce and an acti­ve posi­tion for uni­ver­sal human rights and again­st exclu­sion, racism and gro­up-rela­ted misan­thro­py.
We work to sha­pe a com­mon futu­re based on sha­red valu­es and goals regar­d­less of natio­nal iden­ti­ty and geo­gra­phic origin.
