VISION
SBW Berlin and Its International Context
SBW Berlin advocates for a socially better world. Together with our scholarship recipients and partner organizations from Germany and abroad we design, develop, and promote projects that support people in need and have a general benefit for society.
We believe that education and the dissemination of educational opportunities are keys to improving the lives of all people. In addition to education, however, social commitment is also an important cornerstone of all our projects. Our scholarship programs are therefore designed not only to support talented people in their education, but also to support people from all over the world who have fewer opportunities for education but are socially engaged through their social commitment.

School project in Bulgaria
In our school in Trjavna in Bulgaria we also want to support talented children. Because of the building’s location next to a hospital for children suffering from lung diseases, we also intend to support those children admitted there as inpatients to address and close any educational gaps during their hospital stays. Find out more about our work in Bulgaria here.
Music therapy as a project of SBW Berlin
In our work with several musically gifted scholarship recipients, we have gained experiences in the field of music therapy. Thus, this form of therapy turned into one of SBW Berlin’s permanent projects. Processing feelings is easier through music. This might be especially relevant and helpful for refugees.
