| The Wittenberg Center is accommodated in the LEUCOREA, the 500 years old University of Wittenberg. The LEUCOREA holds an excellent infrastructure with various seminar rooms, an auditorium (capacity 180 people) and an integrated Congress Hotel (45 beds). Wittenberg was always a place of international discourse and exchange. With a unique legacy of reformatory, intellectual and humanistic thinking, this small town once created a global impact. |
The first African who attended a university in Europe was Anton Wilhelm Amo, who came from Axim in Ghana. He studied in Halle and Wittenberg, where he wrote his thesis on a body-soul problem and gained a degree as Doctor of Philosophy in 1734.
It is no coincidence that this historical place has now become home to the Wittenberg Centre for Global Ethics. Such an environment fosters inspiration, intellectual discourse and innovation. |
