Hermann Gmeiner Academy

International training centre of SOS Children's Villages and seminar house

We are a platform for professional exchange, training and further education of employees as well as conferences on topics of worldwide children's village work. This will make important contributions to the future of the SOS Children's Village. We are also memory of the organization by running an archive. We also research topics related to childhood, family and organizational culture. Last but not least, the academy honors program participants and employees all over the world with the special recognition of their commitment and achievements.

Our house is also open to the many friends of the SOS Children's Village and other social organizations and can be booked by them. Our heart and professional commitment is for a world of tomorrow in which all children are respected, loved and supported in their development so that they have many opportunities for a self-determined, happy life.
