Mir Akademien's story

Before MIR Akademien came into being, I would be all over the place with social innovation, leading life-long learning projects such as Erasmus+, Horizon, Just and ESF.

Hi, I'm Yevgeniya!

The idea for MIR Akademien came to me unexpectedly. I was running a workshop on human rights for newly arrived migrant women. I thought I was doing everything right, pouring my heart into teaching. But something was missing—there was no real connection between me and the participants.

After a break, my friend, who was hosting the workshop, took me aside and gave me a simple yet profound piece of advice: “Stop talking at them. Start talking with them. They have plenty to share too.” It was a game-changer. We moved the chairs into a circle, and I began asking questions instead of lecturing. The conversation transformed. The women had so much to offer, and I learned more in those few hours than I had in months.

That night, I registered MIR Akademien. I wanted to create a space where learning was truly two-way, where ideas were shared, perspectives were heard, and everyone—regardless of their background—could make a meaningful impact.

At MIR Akademien, we focus on social innovation—both creating our own impactful projects and empowering others through training and consultancy. We believe in collaboration, real change, and making sure everyone has a seat at the table. Our mission is to help organizations and individuals turn their ideas into actions that matter.

MIR Akademien isn’t just a business—it’s a community of changemakers. If you’re ready to make a real difference, it’s your tribe.

Let's make an impact together,

Yevgeniya, Founder
