Your own TV show

The Flensburg Youth Ring (Flensburger Jugendring) is the host of the youth centre DIE EXXE (www.flensburger-jugendring.de – only in German) and will try to invite one to three Flensburg youths to participate in your project. The Flensburger Jugendring, founded in 1949, unites youth associations and youth communities active in Flensburg. The purpose of the Flensburg Youth Ring is to promote youth work. As a representation of interests, it takes a stand vis-à-vis public, elected representatives and authorities on issues of youth policy and youth law. The youth centre "Exxe" is an open place used by children and young people aged between eight and eighteen. The staff of the "Exxe" try to create a place of trust, joy, creativity and experimentation. The ijgd has been organising volunteer service programmes since 1949. We are an independent, non-profit association for international youth work, a recognised independent youth welfare organisation, and one of the largest and oldest workcamp organisations in Germany. Each year, we assist around 5,000 young people into volunteer work in Germany and abroad. We give them the opportunity to be creative, act in solidarity, take responsibility for themselves, and discover their own true potential and strengths. Our principles: Ecological learning, voluntary contribution, self-organisation, social development, intercultural learning, gender equality, anti-racism/anti-discrimination and political education.

You should follow this street for around 1 km (after a few metres the street name changes to “Schützenkuhle” and then “Zur Exe”). After a few hundred metres, you should see the Exe car park on the right hand side. At the end of the car park, there are two buildings on the other side of street. “Die Exxe” is the second building, directly next to the youth hostel. The building is slightly set back and is easily recognisable by its graffiti. More Information about train and bus connections: www.bahn.com.
