The youth service of the district of Nordwestmecklenburg supports young people in their individual and social development and contributes to maintaining or creating positive living conditions for young people and their families as well as a child- and family-friendly environment.
At the DRK Children's and Youth Leisure Centre in Wismar, children and young people meet to actively organise their leisure time and take advantage of educational opportunities.
The ijgd has been successfully running this workcamp with these project partners since 2009.
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.

Do you like playing with children and would you like to help children from the district of Nordwestmecklenburg experience great holidays?
Then join us and look after 20 to 30 children between the ages of six and twelve every day in the Hanseatic city of Wismar and in three or four other towns in the district of Nordwestmecklenburg as part of the holiday play activities. With your ideas and your desire for creative activities, sports games, music and dance, make sure that these days are a great experience for you and the children. With games, songs and handicraft ideas from your home countries, you can give the play weeks an international flair.
On Monday 29th and Tuesday 30th of July, you will prepare the holiday play activities and the press conference on 30th of July. Afterwards, from Wednesday 31st of July to Friday 2nd of August and from Monday 5th of August to Friday 9th of August, you will look after the children together with the help of the educational staff on site and put your prepared ideas into practice.
The holiday play activities take place in the Hanseatic city of Wismar and in the youth facilities of the district of Nordwestmecklenburg. The Wismar Children's and Youth Leisure Centre will provide you with bicycles for the entire period. You can also use the bikes to go on excursions into the town and the surrounding area. For trips to other places in the district, you will receive holiday tickets to use public transport if possible or you will be driven by the team.
A good knowledge of German will make it easier for you to get in touch with the children. Communication in the camp will be in German and English.
Please remember to bring some game ideas and music from your home countries!
