Resumo: The host organization it is a recognized institution based on prevention work against right-wing extremism, discrimination and antisemitism which is committed to a diverse and democratic society. The organization is concerned with the connection between history and present and the questions of today's coexistence.
Currently, 15 emplyees are working at the organization, additional to that 5 volunteers and interns and about 25 freelancers. The organization is situated in the heart of the city in an inner-city-area which is known for its interesting history and for its big changes after the city wall came down. The city has 3.5 million inhabitants and is the capital of Germany. It also is the biggest city in Germany. The city has a high amount of citizens with non-german background (more than 400 thousand). The clash between East and West is still present in the city. The city is also a centre of political and social debates, and a place well known for its growing cultural activities. Its position close to Eastern Europe is another important factor influencing the city's atmosphere.
The organization has been working with volunteers for more than eight years. It is taking part in different programs for volunteers - national and international.

- be able to work in a team
- like to work with young people

We inform about EVS-vacancies by using different mailing-lists, especially such for youths. Moreover, we also reply on e-mails from sending-organisations and from individual applicants from many countries. We receive such inquiries about vacancies usually 5 times per week.

All the candidates can apply either directly to the organization or within their sending organisation. They send their applications in any form they wish, describing them personally, including their interests, motivation and time-capacities to participate in this project. Candidates are usually contacted per telephone and asked for further details as well as explaining the details of our project. All organisations and applicants become feedback-information (usualy per e-mail), concerning our decision and, if rejecting, further EVS-vacant-possibilities.
