K8 explores the role of co-creation methodologies in processes of change, from organizational development to systemic design. Building on the experimental cultures of art and design, K8 remains close to the peer-to-peer dynamics of existing and emerging digital and data cultures. Our work brings civil society organizations and social movement actors together with other public and private actors interested in collaborative and regenerative ways of creating, living, and working.

Founded in 2015, K8 builds on the methodological work conduced at the xm:lab – Experimental Media Lab of the Academy of Fine Arts Saar, founded in 2012 as institute for experimental education and arts-and-technology research. K8 was developed by people interested in organizing training, transfer, and think tank activities to share and expand these methods with a wider community. Since then, K8 has attracted interest, funding, and support from a wide variety of sources to conduct an average of 25 individual projects per year with private and public organizations and continue to evolve our innovation and transformation frameworks through such exchange.

KABAWIL’s work is based on their concept of relation oriented cultural work with youngsters and adults. It brings people from different backgrounds (social status, education and nationalities) together. Besides the professional training the groups also learn how to communicate, how to solve conflicts, to take responsibilities for themselves and others, some start to develop a new perspective for their life. Performing is one of the concepts milestones, it brings public apperception, approval and acceptance. KABAWIL’s work always emphasises on the actual and future living environments of the participants, based upon biography works with the various groups. KABAWIL’s team represents the Fine Arts, Dance, Music, Theatre,Creative Writing, cross cultural teaching and learning, sharing and interacting in a multicultural team on an eye to eye level. All these elements enable and help to develop new means of collaboration.

The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung is related to the Christian Democratic movement. Having emerged from the 'Society for Christian Democratic Education Work' founded in 1956, it was named after the first Chancellor of the Federal Republic in 1964. We are guided by the same principles that inspired Adenauer's work.
