🏢 About the local organisation
The ijgd has been organising volunteer service programmes since 1949. We are an independent, non-profit association for international youth work, a recognised independent youth welfare organisation, and one of the largest and oldest workcamp organisations in Germany. Each year, we assist around 5,000 young people into volunteer work in Germany and abroad. We give them the opportunity to be creative, act in solidarity, take responsibility for themselves, and discover their own true potential and strengths.Our 8 main principles are: Ecological learning, voluntary contribution, self-organisation, social development, intercultural learning, gender equality, anti-racism/anti-discrimination and political education
💼 What the programme involves
Even though we cannot meet face to face we can still stay connected with people from all around the world. Are you interested in meeting people from different countries and would you like to learn more about intercultural aspects, experiences and about our main topic in this virtual Camp „fast fashion“? Like in a real ijgd workcamp, we will come together and get to know each other, play games and have different digital workshops. We will talk about the problems of textil industry for human, the enviroment, the climate change, we will discuss possibilites for every single person and what can be done. You will get inputs about the textil production, influence for the enviroment and what it means for human rights. Maybe we would like to encourage you to do some tasks offline and share the outcomes with the other participants. Your online ijgd workcamp leaders will spend 5 days with you during which we can create an online camp-family.
When: from 11am - 3:30pm, break 1pm – 1:30pm (CEST)
