Youth and Democracy office is an institution for political youth education and the promotion of democracy. It aims to provide information on complex social issues and their intersections as well as political and societal structures. We create spaces for young people to discuss these questions on eye level. Young people are motivated to reflect on their own set of values and to evaluate decisions on this basis. Youth and Democracy office also serves as a contact point and idea hub for people who want to get active and start their own projects and initiatives.

The office is always a part of the Jugendring Dortmund team. We always coordinate our work and cooperate in many ways. In different projects we cooperate with our local youth welfare service, educational officers of our member organizations and other educational players in Dortmund and beyond.
