Hardly any other topic is currently the subject of as much public debate as how to deal with the challenges posed by global refugee and migration movements in our country. In the political arena, well-honed recipes are being discussed from different perspectives, while self-appointed experts are outdoing each other at regulars' tables with daring assessments, while at the same time volunteer refugee helpers are reaching their limits. A fact check reveals profound half-knowledge in many places: Terms are regularly confused, legal rules are abbreviated, statistics are interpreted to suit vested interests and emotions are addressed with verve. More education on the subject is needed! And not only in the city of human rights (with a population share with a migration background of 50.1%*), it could positively promote the discussion and attitude towards this complex topic.

A ship on land as a museum learning space

A ship on land in Nuremberg will initially surprise, arouse interest and curiosity. However, the ship is not self-explanatory and is not primarily a technical-historical object in the urban space, but a testimony to flight and rescue. This transfer is to be achieved by a supplementary exhibition in rooms to be created next to the ship. The Sea-Eye follows in the tradition of numerous ships that have served and continue to serve as escape vehicles since time immemorial. The rescue ship Sea-Eye therefore has a "door-opener" function for dealing with the topics of "flight and migration" in the context of educational work. Both the ship itself as a so-called non-formal learning location with its actual object history and the thematic learning fields associated with it contain a variety of "steep templates" for political and human rights education work.
