Our Principles

Eager to experiment

By means of future experiments we can test our ideas at an early stage and gain insights. In doing so, we experiment where others fear failure.

Honest

We do not promise more than we can offer. We are self-critical and take our time to give our work a solid foundation.

Independent

We remain true to ourselves and our priorities. That is why we are independent of any institutions and finance ourselves through our own projects, whose content and goals we determine ourselves.

Holistic

We work with a transdisciplinary team. This enables us to critically examine approaches to solutions from different perspectives and to detect weaknesses early on.

Relevant to society

Society is at the centre of our work. We seek meaningful answers to societal challenges. This claim is non-negotiable.

Open

The Dezentrum is open for people with different opinions and origins. With our workshops and events we always want to bring together an audience that is as diverse as possible.
