Collaborations
and Networks

Schools are places of both learning and life – which also means they should open themselves to the wider community and region. In this section we would like to introduce our collaborations, networks, and extracurricular projects.

Education is about broadening horizons.

At the Phorms Campus Hamburg, we live our core values every day while partnering with social organisations, businesses, and universities who share these values. This enables us to help our students develop a deeper understanding of their local environment. «
