"Sustainable education relates to a promotion of key competencies such as emotional, social and media competencies. A sustainable mediapedagogical approach therefore needs to underscore participation and empowerment through activation of creative resources in combination with educational content and values. Naturally intercultural projects should always put an emphasis on promoting democracy and international understanding."
