Freiraum

In fall of 2017, 47 Goethe Institutes in Europe came together for a joint project called Freiraum (German for free space). In order to better understand and deepen the local context, each institute chose a partner in its own country. The Goethe Institute in Vilnius invited our association to become a partner in this project, and so we became involved in this international project.
