INNOVATION AND DEVELOPMENT AT JODDID
JoDDiD also sees itself as an a place of innovation. The Innovation and Development department deals with issues relating to formats and materials for extracurricular youth and adult education in the field of civic education.
From a didactic perspective, we want to identify and make visible gaps in the structures of extracurricular youth and adult education in the field of political education. Building on this, the research center develops new formats and materials that demonstrate alternatives to established formats, such as evening events with lectures or panel discussions. We work experimentally and produce our own prototypes, which can be found in our store.
We are particularly interested in formats and materials that are material or space-related, open up low-threshold access, include outreach or pick-up formats, have a language-relieving effect and appear suitable for opening up access to an offer for diverse and different target groups at the same time.

INNOVATION LAB
In a sense, the innovation lab is the heart of JoDDiD. It is both a work area and a space in at JoDDiD where people can work, think and laugh. It offers the opportunity to shape development processes together in a stimulating environment on site in our office building.
Creativity, thoughts and development .... need space: space for development, space for communication, space for production, space for experimentation. The space should provide the necessary materials, tools and stimulating examples to make this possible.
