The award ceremony took place in Bonn on December 1, 2014 and was opened with the welcoming adress by Reinhard Limbach, Mayor of Bonn.

The winners of the Innovation Prize for Continuing Education 2014:

Project "Hörpfade": Participants in Bavarian adult education centres produce personal audio guides about their regions,thus creating a sound map www.hoerpfade.de. These audio guides make the variety of history, art and culture perceptible. Course instructors are professionally trained by journalists and media coaches of the Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR). BR also supports the project medially.

The project by Urania Berlin „Ich-kann-nicht-singen-Chor“ deals with sounds and intends to get rid of the idea that most people are not able to sing. The educational programme invites those, who had not built up the courage before, to sing with others. The choir members produce remarkable listening experiences without reading a single note. The adult education centre Arnstadt-Ilmenau dedicates its annual international art symposia to art education, which finds a permanent place at the Art Trail. The cultural education project invites and integrates all regional citizens.

The special awards go to two cultural institutions: the art gallery in Emden for the interactive visitor project „Ortung“, which offers an explorer kit for the artistic documentation of journeys. Results of the artistic research travels are a successful example of activating (non) visitors. The education theatre project „Trilogie des Geldes“ pursues the idea of a theatre academy for economics. Economic patterns are regardes as theatre scenarios and visualise the economic processes of political decisions in this acting approach. Thus, the project creates a forum of understanding and questioning economic and political contexts with and artistic approach.
