Kuruluş
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.

İş Tanımı
The Schwarzwasser Valley near Marienberg is one of the most beautiful valleys in the Saxon Ore Mountains. It is a nature reserve and part of the European Natura 2000 protected area system. The area is characterised by the near-natural course of the river and the rocky, predominantly wooded slopes. The work includes the removal of the ‘glandular balsam’ (Impatiens glandulifera), which is spreading en masse on the upper slopes of the valley. As an alien plant species with high competitive power, it displaces native plant species such as the common balsam (Impatiens nolitangere) and meadowsweet (Filipendlula ulmaria). The shallow-rooted plant is pulled out of the ground together with the root ball and disposed of.
