Our mission statement

Goals

With regard to the cooperation and integration process in the Danube region, we are particularly concerned with the promotion of:

// International understanding
// cultural, scientific and democratic cooperation
// Environmental and landscape protection
// Development aid

This process is supported by the European Danube Academy as a platform for cooperation in science, culture, politics, education and the media.

This support is provided in connection with the Danube activities of the cities of Ulm and Neu-Ulm, the Danube Region Strategy of the European Union,
the Council of Danube Cities and Regions and other partners.

The European Danube Academy addresses topics that arise through cooperation with partners along the Danube, especially in specialist areas that are particularly relevant to the Danube region:

// Humanities and social sciences
// Democracy and law
// Environment, energy and mobility
// Medicine and Public Health
// Culture and media

um:

// to develop concrete projects for Ulm’s future prospects as a European city of culture
// to make a contribution to the further development of Ulm and Neu-Ulm as a location for higher education and university as educational institutions of European standing
// to encourage cooperation with committed citizens of the Danube region to help shape the future of their own living space so that development can unfold directly from the cities and regions
