📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Lernimpuls Witten e.V. was founded in Witten in 1997 as a migrant self-organization (MSO) with the aim of promoting and supporting anyone. The main focus is on child, youth and parent work, social activities and learning assistance. Due to the constant growth, offers are continuously developed with the help of volunteers, supporting members and donors, so that Lernimpuls Witten e.V. is now a sponsor of independent youth welfare, a member of the parity welfare association and an approved sponsor according to AZAV. Lernimpuls Witten e.V. cooperates with various institutions in order to facilitate social activities, learning assistance, projects, competitions, seminars, cultural events, excursions, consultations and home visits. These include the city of Witten, the Witten International Network, the Municipal Integration Center Ennepe-Ruhr District, the LWL, the Ministry for Children, Family and Refugees and Integration of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, KOMM-AN NRW, the Holzkamp Comprehensive School in Witten, the Federal Employment Agency, samo.fa, WIIK e.V., the German Red Cross, the Association of Committed Civil Society NRW, the Protestant Adult Education Association Westphalia and Lippe e.V. and the Parents Network NRW. Lernimpuls Witten e.V. sees it as its duty to support and, if necessary, integrate people in the best possible way, regardless of their ethnic origin, religion or ideology. Through several interactive projects such as the summer and fall camps, the association has managed to strengthen the "we-feeling" of the people, to promote cohesion and to let children and young people participate and integrate in society. Getting to know people of other nationalities is the basis for peaceful coexistence in a diverse, plural society. Thus, Lernimpuls Witten e.V. partly also acts as an organizer at other events and thus offers the possibility of an exchange of people from different countries of origin. Another important component is the learning assistance, with which the Lernimpuls Witten e.V. wants to offer students support with regard to school problems.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
