We promote and convey the German language as a key qualification for education, employment and understanding. It is many people’s link to Germany.
We provide access to knowledge and information about Germany and present our country’s cultural phenomena, positions and experience throughout the world. Conversely, we take advantage of the opportunities offered by intercultural dialogue to bring important developments from other regions of the world to Germany.
We promote an understanding of Europe at a global level and develop common European perspectives. Within Europe, multilingualism and an awareness of European citizenship are essential for closer unity.
Goethe-Institute sets internationally recognized standards in the teaching and learning of German as a foreign language. It runs language courses, compiles teaching materials, trains teachers, contributes to scientific research and participates in politicolanguage initiatives.
Goethe-Institute Barcelona monitors trends in Germany and encourages cultural collaboration across by organizing programs of events and making contributions to various festivals and exhibitions in the fields of film, dance, theatre, literature and translation.
Libraries and information centres, forums for discussion, diverse print-, audio- and video-publications and our visitors’ service aim to paint a contemporary portrait of Germany, promoting international discourse on the key concerns of what is becoming an increasingly global society.
