Information cultural centers, reading rooms and libraries, discussion forums diverse printed and AV publications convey a current image of Germany and promote the international discourse on key issues of the increasingly globalized society.
Parnerships and funds, criteria and topics
The Goethe-Institute works on the basis of partnership cooperation. Particular importance is given to the joint development of ideas and dialogue from the very incentive of the project. The events are planned together and carried out in a partnership-based division of labor from the idea through the discussion of various formats and forms of events, the selection of artists, ensembles and speakers to financing, management, and organisation. Interested organisations are encouraged to communicate their ideas and plans as early as possible so that mutual interests and contributions to the content, promotion, and cofunding can be taken into account. The Goethe-Institute is not a commercial organizer nor a sponsor: financial contributions to projects that had been planned without the Goethe-institute participation are only under restricted conditions eligible.
The focus is not only on current topics, information, and contents but also on the lively, sustainable contacts. The aim is to bring people together and contribute to the formation of international networks. The topics of interest are contemporary cultural scene development as well as cultural heritage in and from Germany; Germany, Slovenia, and Europe - society, knowledge, history, cultural diversity and perspectives of the neighborhood; German as a foreign language in a Europe of multilingualism.
Cultural cooperation
The Goethe-Institute takes up trends in Germany and promotes international cultural cooperation, also through cultural events and festival contributions in the fields of film, dance, music, theater, exhibitions, literature and translation. They are interested in cooperation with partners all over Slovenia, not only in the urban centres.
A cooperation project Luther/Trubar (2017) placed Luther in the context of the European Reformation and compared him with Primož Trubar, the Slovenian pedant. Eight phrases by Luther as well as poems by Trubar, have provided a starting point for the musical explorations of composers Uroš Rojko, Vito Žuraj, Iris ter Schiphorst, Mark Andre, Detlef Heusinger, Peter Strahovnik and Luka Juhart, their works being a musical extension of the exhibition on Luther. Visitors had an opportunity to listen to Ensemble Experimental and SWR Experimentalstudio from Freiburg at four location in the Ljubljana Castle.
The Exchange of Dramaturgs is another platform through which Oliver Frljić/Mladinsko Theatre collaborated with Gorki Theater in Berlin. The awarded performance collective She She Pop from Berlin opens the City of Women International Festival of Contemporary Arts in October 2019.
In 2019, on the occassion of the Centenary of the Bauhaus school, a line of events and discussions have been organised at the Goethe Institute in Ljubljana. In 2010, the Goethe-Institute supported the multidisciplinary exhibition Bauhaus twenty-21 (Architecture, Design, Photography) set up by Foto+Synthesis at the Jakopič Gallery, Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana. The Embassy of the Republic of Germany in Slovenia and the Goethe-Institut Ljubljana cooperated closely in preparing the German Month for the Maribor, European Capital of Culture 2012 programme.

In another project, the Goethe-Bus “German on Tour” visited teachers and pupils at their schools in the Primorska region of Slovenia and provided them with information about Germany and the German language. Participants were invited to join talks and games and explore a multimedia-based bus.
The German Reading Room and Library
The Goethe-Institut Ljubljana was established in 2004, expanding the programme activities of the former "German Reading Room", opened in 1995 with an aim of offering a rich variety of contemporary German-language literature for free.

Up to 2015 the German Library was an independent unit of the Central Technological Library, University of Ljubljana, where related small-scale cultural and informative events took place.
