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 Eifel is Germany's youngest volcanic region. There are more mineral springs and volcanoes here than anywhere else in Germany.
The project helps, for example, to create climate-resilient forests. Young plants from last year's reforestation are being released on some farms. In most cases these are beech, oak, chestnut, sycamore and cherry trees. Many of these plants are covered to protect them from browsing by deer. You will also check these.
At the Glaadt castle ruins in Jünkerath, you will remove vegetation from the wall to protect it from decay. Removing fences in some nature conservation areas is also on the agenda.
Another major topic involves school activities at the Realschul-Plus locations in Jünkerath and Stadtkyll. In Jünkerath, we are launching an outdoor fitness park and redesigning the green classroom. In Hillesheim you will be helping in designing the school yard. Here we will also be in contact with pupils and teachers, so you will be able to meet some locals.
Konaklama ve Yemek
You will stay in log cabins with shared rooms at the forest youth camp. The log cabins are located in the middle of the forest. There are sufficient sanitary facilities, a communal kitchen, which must be shared with other guests, a lounge and dining room.
You cook together. You will be provided with money for shopping. Vegetarian or vegan meals are possible. Please indicate any intolerances when registering.
Konum ve Serbest Zaman
Jünkerath is located in the middle of the Volcanic Eifel. There is an optional hike to the maars (Saturdays) and an excursion to the Rursee lake (Wednesdays). There are numerous excursion possibilities, e.g. to Cologne, Trier and Luxembourg City. Your accommodation, the forest youth camp, is in an idyllic but secluded location in the middle of the forest - ideal for all nature lovers!
