📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The "Brandenburgische Sportjugend" (BSJ, Sports Youth Brandenburg) is an independent working youth organisation in the ''Sports Confederation Brandenburg'' (LSB, Landessportbund Brandenburg e.V.). Its members are children and teenagers, as well as, their youth representatives who are organized in more than 2.500 sporting-clubs. It counts more than 135 000 members under the age of 27. Therefore, it is the largest youth association in the state of Brandenburg. The Brandenburgische Sportjugend is of public utility and recognized as an independent supporter of the 'freie Jugendhilfe' (helping-service for young people). The organisation stands up for the co-operation and co-determination of young people in sporting-clubs and associations and acts as a representative of their interests. The work of the Brandenburgische Sportjugend is guided by the aim to make as many children and teenagers as possible find their way into the sporting-clubs. It is not only the aspect of fun that comes up, furthermore, the youth is supposed to have a place where they can spend their spare time in a sensible way. Within a close co-operation with other supporters of the ''Jugendhilfe'', for example the ''Landesjugendring Brandenburg'', and with the support of politics and commerce, the organization contributes to designing the society and provides assistance on social and youth political problems. The organisation offers numerous projects regarding sport, youth-work and social youth-work.

Wir setzen uns für die Mitarbeit und Mitbestimmung von Kindern und Jugendlichen in den Sportvereinen und -verbänden ein und sind der Anwalt ihrer Interessen. Wir fördern ihre ganzheitliche Entwicklung, das Ehrenamt und unterstützten die Einheit von Nachwuchssport und Jugendarbeit. Durch Beratung, Anleitung und Begleitung unterstützen wir unsere Mitgliedsorganisationen und Partner. Gemeinsam mit Multiplikatoren und Institutionen werden jugendgerechte Angebote im gesamten Land Brandenburg entwickelt und umgesetzt. Unter dem Motto: „Immer in Bewegung“ will die Brandenburgische Sportjugend ihren Beitrag zur Sportentwicklung im Land Brandenburg leisten. Dafür sind wir in den Bereichen „Freiwilligenarbeit im Sport“, „Außerschulische Jugendbildung“, „Internationale Jugendarbeit“ und „Sport im Elementarbereich“ aktiv. Mit zahlreichen „Sozialen Projekten“ unterbreiten wir Angebote zur gesellschaftlichen Integration, zur Stärkung des zivilbürgerlichen Engagements, zur Gewaltprävention, zum Demokratielernen sowie zur Schaffung von alternativen Freizeitbeschäftigungen. Außerdem organisieren wir erlebnisreiche, sportorientierte Kinder- und Jugendferienreisen.

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).
