Community engagement, gender equality, peacebuilding and environmental sustainability - that’s what WAVES are made of!
We believe in respect, cooperation, communication and connection. We believe in multi-perspectivity and the deconstruction of stereotypes. We critically address and raise awareness about today’s societal challenges: from the local to the global.
Our pedagogical approach is global education and our focus is on non-formal and informal learning methods and tools.

We believe that women’s place is everywhere where decisions have been made. Achieving gender equality will have a significant positive impact on the world from education and health sector, to businesses, reduced poverty and economy as such, as well as general well-being of societies.
Environmental Awareness
Our focus is on the development of environmental awareness through lifelong learning education on environment, development and sustainability.
Community Engangement
Community engagement is especially important when facing crises, and changes need to be made. Our focus is on learning, education and awareness that would empower every individual and equip them with the skills and knowledge acquired to become active citizens enabled to make informed decisions.

The establishment and promotion of a culture of peace and conflict prevention & resolution are at the core of development of societies and communities who can coexist peacefully regardless their socio-cultural background, political and religious views and/or sexual orientation etc.
