We have long-stan­ding expe­ri­ence in trans­na­tio­nal youth exch­an­ges and staff mobi­li­ty pro­gram­mes with count­ries such as Spain, Ita­ly, the Net­her­lands, Tur­key, Roma­nia, Bul­ga­ria, France, Hun­ga­ry and Austria.

In addi­ti­on, we have a wide ran­ge of long-stan­ding expe­ri­ence in various are­as of social work with par­ti­ci­pan­ts from a wide ran­ge of inter­na­tio­nal back­grounds, inclu­ding youth wel­fa­re (nota­b­ly with young unac­com­pa­nied refu­gees), school-rela­ted ser­vices, skills deve­lo­p­ment, and care­er gui­dance and integration.

Our qua­li­fied staff are expe­ri­en­ced in working with groups of young peo­p­le, regard­less of their back­ground, from pri­ma­ry school child­ren to young adults.

Working with peo­p­le facing mul­ti­ple chal­lenges in a man­ner that is respectful, sen­si­ti­ve to dis­cri­mi­na­ti­on and empowe­ring is second natu­re to us. Grün­Bau has a com­pre­hen­si­ve child pro­tec­tion strategy.

Groups can recei­ve com­pre­hen­si­ve sup­port and gui­dance, inclu­ding a 24/7 on-call ser­vice for emergencies.

We have our own group accom­mo­da­ti­on in a for­mer farm­house on the out­skirts of Dort­mund, with lar­ge com­mu­nal are­as, a self-cate­ring kit­chen and a lar­ge gar­den; peaceful­ly situa­ted in the coun­try­si­de yet very well con­nec­ted to public trans­port (400 met­res from the metro). If requi­red, we can also orga­ni­se other accom­mo­da­ti­on – whe­ther a hotel, hos­tel or holi­day flats.

In the imme­dia­te vici­ni­ty of the farm­house, the­re is an extra­cur­ri­cu­lar lear­ning cent­re – also run by Grün­Bau – offe­ring a wide ran­ge of acti­vi­ties for school-age children. 

For older par­ti­ci­pan­ts, we can arran­ge indi­vi­du­al­ly matched intern­ships in a wide ran­ge of sec­tors through our exten­si­ve net­work of busi­nesses and com­pa­nies, as well as our expe­ri­ence in job coaching. 

We also have our own work­shops and work are­as whe­re low-thres­hold intern­ships can be car­ri­ed out.

We can offer indi­vi­dua­li­sed lan­guage cour­ses in our own class­rooms, eit­her deli­ver­ed by our own qua­li­fied „DaZ/DaF“ tea­chers (Ger­man as a Second Lan­guage / Ger­man as a For­eign Lan­guage), or in coope­ra­ti­on with other lan­guage schools.

Depen­ding on requi­re­ments, a ran­ge of work­shops and other acti­vi­ties can be orga­nis­ed in col­la­bo­ra­ti­on with our various projects.

We’d also be hap­py to orga­ni­se a varied pro­gram­me of lei­su­re acti­vi­ties for your groups.
