Our pilot project my-ecocamp Ghana is currently in the planning and realisation phase following a 9-month on-site exploration. 

We are looking for a suitable site with recreational and well-being potential for our educational centre based on various selection criteria.

The site to be selected for our my-ecocamp educational campus should fulfil certain conditions that have a healing effect on body and mind. Inspiring for those hungry for education. Stimulates all the senses and at the same time offers the opportunity to regenerate and recharge your batteries.

In addition to the my-ecocamp educational campus, the site will also include areas for permaculture, medicinal plant and herb gardens, a health and research centre, event and exhibition spaces for presenting local products, as well as bed and breakfast accommodation.

Buildings made of natural materials in a calming environment where the BODY-SOUL-MIND can come to rest.

Willingness of local institutions to support the vision of a healthy living environment and preserve their own culture

Promote recreational and leisure value

Low environmental impact on soil, water and air

Avoidance of the use of herbicides and pesticides

Achieve additional sources of income through holistic ecological action

EDUCATION OASIS

Target group: Kindergarten to senior high school

Diversity - Equity - Inclusion

‘Disability is not inability’

People with disabilities have exceptional talents, strengths, character and the will to succeed. The Cape Coast School for the Deaf and Blind was founded in 1970 with 15 students. It currently has 454 pupils. The hearing and visually impaired children of school age benefit from the formal education it provides, with the latter using Braille for reading and mobility orientation.

Many people with disabilities feel neglected and excluded from opportunities for self-improvement and wealth creation. This leads to frustrations that can plunge them into unwanted life crises. So says Abraham Annang Yemoson, the school's director.

The school is strategically located between the Aggrey Memorial Zion Senior High School and the Ghana National College along the Cape Coast-Takoradi Highway.

my-ecocamp Ghana

Children and young people from the 7 regions and 16 districts of Ghana are given the opportunity to get a taste of the world of ecologically orientated professions.

All invited carers and pupils undergo a health check. This is something that should actually take place on campus before accommodation in shared accommodation, which is common in Ghana in boarding school-style accommodation. To rule out the possibility of infectious diseases being transmitted to fellow students.

It is therefore not uncommon in Ghana and other African countries for the number of pupils to have increased many times over since a campus was established. The number and condition of buildings with dormitories (animals are guaranteed more space and a hygienically clean environment in Europe) - as seen in Accra, Cape Coast and Kumasi. Defective doors and windows without mosquito protection. Lack of fans. Simply often a haven for all kinds of insects, parasites and other disease carriers.

Parallel to Ghana, my-ecocamps are also being built in other West and East African countries such as Senegal, Kenya, Cameroon and Tanzania.

Co-creators wanted

The association ‘Von Kulturen Lernen e.V.’ is looking for young people and students from all areas of education to participate in the real and visual design of the pilot project in Ghana. A project that will be realised by young people from Africa, Europe and Asia.

The focus for students is on the innovative design of a globally unique educational project: the construction of a barrier-free, holistically healthy and ecological campus with optimised natural materials such as bamboo, wood, clay, palm leaves, straw and reeds.

The interior is designed with flexible furniture, walls, movable wall elements, stackable chairs and tables, beanbags. A colour and lighting concept ensures a pleasant experience.

With the support of a BAUBIODATENBANK, life cycle assessments can be carried out in advance before various materials are used. This also applies to the interior design.

In show and learning rooms, young people from schools in regions of Ghana are given the opportunity to gain an insight into various professional fields and try out practical skills. Discovering their own talents and arousing curiosity for more.

The pilot project will be realised in Ghana on a site yet to be selected.

Internet presence

One focus will be the presentation of the holistic ecological education project.

The existing website is based on the multilingual TYPO3 editorial system. Among other things, this allows password-protected access areas to be generated.

IT security

Social media conformity 

by introducing buttons to selected social media companies that are characterised by class and data security.
Threema will be our main platform. 

We will deliberately leave out data collection companies such as META from Zuckerberg. The latest 26. of May

For all interested co-creators

My WhatsApp account will be deleted by 26 May at the latest. 

Interested co-creators should have set up an account with Threema by then. Exchange messages, calls and files. GDPR-compliant and developed in Switzerland. Everyone's data security and unrestricted personal rights to their own data, photos and videos should be worth a one-off fee of CHF 6.

Depending on the further data collection rage on Facebook, Spotify, TikTok, Vimeo, YouTube ... we will consequently say goodbye to them as well.

PHASE I

Prompt brainstorming, exchange of ideas

PHASE II

Concept optimisation

PHASE III

ZOOM conferences to get to know all participants

PHASE IV

On-site meeting of all participants in Bielefeld from 29 - 31 August

PHASE V

Familiarisation of Ghanaian partners by project participants

Participating companies receive their own access and can add their company presentation

my-ecocamp as a Responsible ownership

In our deliberately chosen corporate form of RESPONSIBLE OWNERSHIP, various possibilities of participation and involvement as Culturas are made possible.

Equivalence of contributed commitment, knowledge, time ... serve as an opportunity to acquire profit participation rights, to become shareholders. Even as owners with voting and participation rights. Profits and assets remain in the company.

Partner companies involved in the project take CSR seriously and do not engage in any form of greenwashing.
