The CAMPUS Layout and Architectural Planning

Architectural Concept

The International Forced Migration, Capacity Building, Reconciliation and Development Institute will unite education, art, research, and community engagement in a thoughtfully designed space that embodies sustainability, cultural sensitivity, and innovation. Located in a central German city, The CAMPUS will integrate harmoniously with its local environment and community.

Core Campus

The CAMPUS will span 2-5 hectares, featuring five interconnected complexes designed around principles of transparency, openness, and connectivity:

1. Main Building

  • Training and Education Center: Modern classrooms, lecture halls, and workshop spaces dedicated to vocational training
  • R&D Institute: Advanced research facilities focused on displacement, social rehabilitation, and technological innovation

2. Art and Refugee Center

A 500-square-meter creative hub integrated into the main building, offering spaces for dance, painting, sculpture, and other artistic expressions that facilitate healing and cultural exchange.

3.International Visitor and Reconciliation Center

A 5,000-square-meter exhibition space inspired by Denmark’s refugee museum, presenting educational and historical exhibitions on refugee experiences and community reconciliation.

4.Trainee Residences

Thoughtfully designed living facilities for 100-200 trainees, divided into five community-centered units of 20-40 residents each, spanning 1,000-2,000 square meters in total.

5.International Volunteer Center

A welcoming residential complex for global volunteers featuring comfortable living quarters and communal spaces that foster connection and collaboration.

 

Architectural Vision

Buildings will radiate from a central structure serving as The CAMPUS’s heart, connected by walkways and covered bridges. The design emphasizes natural materials—wood, stone, and glass—creating bright, open spaces that inspire hope and possibility.

Our architectural planning embraces:

  • Environmental Sustainability: Green technologies and recycled materials.
  • Community Partnership: Spaces that encourage collaboration.
  • Cultural Sensitivity: Design elements honoring diverse backgrounds.
  • Educational Innovation: Technology-enhanced learning environments.
  • Holistic Support: Integrated spaces for comprehensive refugee assistance.

 

This thoughtfully planned environment will evolve through collaborative partnerships across Germany and beyond, creating an inclusive and inspiring setting for refugee recovery and empowerment.
