Work area ->

We provide knowledge and other resources for young people who want to organise or further develop their projects and activities for a democratic and diverse society, against prejudices and discriminatory practices.

We work with many partners: For example, a workshop on conspiracy narratives has been developed in cooperation with a school, several events on democracy and opportunities to get involved have been carried out together with the Youth Employment Service. Together with Youth Embassy we have developed a simulation game on local governance and youth participation.

The office is primarily involved in political youth education. However, it is also active in adult education, for example in the qualification and support of employees and multipliers in youth work. Expertise can be provided on many different topics in the field of democracy promotion, either directly by the office or through our partners, external trainers and other experts.
