🏢 About the local organisation

pewobe g GmbH in Frankfurt (Oder) is a registered organisation in the youth welfare service in Germany. The publicaccreditation has been done in Eisenhüttenstadt and in Frankfurt (Oder) in 1994 and 1996. Since then we are running several independent organisations which are all based on the federal law for youth and child service. This includes kindergardens, youth clubs, truants projects, assisted living for youngsters and the child emergency service as well as assistance for families in need. All organisations within the Associsation are asked to have an international orientation and educate for tolerance. For this the organisations have cooperations in several countries. In our own facilities we hosted international youth meetings since 1999. Young people from Frankfurt (Oder), Germany and Slubice, Poland are volunteering to make this projects participatory. Within Erasmus+ and the European Solidarity Corps we implement mainly youth exchanges, as well as volunteering projects. We hosted volunteers regularly since 2014. We make sure to include young people with fewer opportunities in our projects, especially young refugees. Die pewobe g GmbH in Frankfurt (Oder) ist ein anerkannter Träger der Jugendhilfe in Deutschland. Die öffentliche Anerkennung erfolgte in Eisenhüttenstadt und in Frankfurt (Oder) in den Jahren 1994 und 1996. Seitdem betreiben wir mehrere Einrichtungen, die alle auf dem Bundesgesetz über die Jugendhilfe basieren. Dazu gehören Kindergärten, Jugendclubs, Schulverweigererprojekte, betreutes Jugendwohnen und der Kindernotdienst sowie Hilfen für Familien in Not. Alle Einrichtungen innerhalb des Trägers sind aufgefordert, sich international auszurichten und zu Toleranz zu erziehen. Hierfür unterhält die Organisation Kooperationen in mehreren Ländern. In unserer eigenen Einrichtung fanden seit 1999 internationale Jugendbegegnungen statt. Junge Menschen aus Frankfurt (Oder), Deutschland und Slubice, Polen beteiligen sich freiwillig an diesen Projekten. Im Rahmen von Erasmus+ und dem Europäischen Solidaritätskorps führen wir vor allem Jugendbegegnungen sowie Freiwilligenprojekte durch. Seit 2014 nehmen wir regelmäßig Freiwillige auf. Wir achten darauf, junge Menschen mit geringeren Chancen in unsere Projekte einzubeziehen, insbesondere auch junge Flüchtlinge.

💼 What the programme involves

Embark on a eight week transformative journey of un-learning and learning — an immersion into the Art of Being and Acting and the essence of Synergetic Living. This unique experience invites you to explore self-discovery, embodied synergy, deep presence, collective creativity, and eco-social transformation. Together with a vibrant community of like-minded individuals, you will explore what it truly means to live and act in harmony with yourself, others in the community, and nature. Key elements within this period are to experience community transformative learning, peer learning, project based learning and implementing value based projects both on individual and collective level. The experience will include processes of un-learning, learning, co-creating, cultivating dialogue, immersing into awareness, acquiring skills while practically experiencing them during constructing, gardening, cooking, creating art and sharing our entrepreneurship ideas and concepts.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The activity will take place in the rural area. The accommodation will be on the premises of the host. The accommodation will be in shared rooms and shared bathrooms and toilets. Here you can find some pictures of Herzershof: https://www.gruppenhaus.de/gut-herzershof-kuestriner-vorland-herzersh-hs12506.html Special needs can be respected. The volunteers will prepare their meals together. It is possible to visit surrounding towns, including Berlin, however the public transportation is limited and arrangements needs to be made beforehand.

🎒 Leisure activities

There will be an introduction training at the beginning of the activity that will include team building, introduction to the tasks as well as introduction to measures regarding the safety and security. Further the group will be guided to implement the practical activities, through which they will learn and develop different skills.

⚠️ Requirements

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).
