Let the show begin! – The Circus Workcamp

Jugendtreff Hagen - Hagen youth centre The Hagen youth centre in the district of the same name in the small town of Ahrensburg offers a comprehensive open programme for children and young people, supervised by teachers. There are a variety of indoor and outdoor games, a campfire area, a wood and pottery workshop, billiards and table football as well as a romping room with climbing nets 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.
