Jugendlichr für Kultur e.V. (YouthX) is a non-governmental organization established by 5 young people from Europe and the Middle East. We want to implement projects, exchanges, and seminars for European and Mediterranean youth together with our partners Wasla, Oyoun Masr Association, and Euro-Med Youth Federation. We aim for funding from Erasmus and from other local institutions.
We want to build an international understanding and education about young people's welfare and their rights in society. As well as expanding the possibility of exchanging contacts and the sense of organization. It's crucial for us to educate our target groups about the importance of cultural diversity and the different aspects of digitalization in our society through innovation.
We want to organize both local and international projects about different subjects that are relevant and educational for different target groups. We also want to create campaigns, workshops, and seminars.
We want to make sure to work in a network as a team to bring out the benefits of our projects and seminars and to expand the knowledge for as many people as possible.

KABAWIL’s work is based on their concept of relation oriented cultural work with youngsters and adults. It brings people from different backgrounds (social status, education and nationalities) together. Besides the professional training the groups also learn how to communicate, how to solve conflicts, to take responsibilities for themselves and others, some start to develop a new perspective for their life. Performing is one of the concepts milestones, it brings public apperception, approval and acceptance. KABAWIL’s work always emphasises on the actual and future living environments of the participants, based upon biography works with the various groups. KABAWIL’s team represents the Fine Arts, Dance, Music, Theatre,Creative Writing, cross cultural teaching and learning, sharing and interacting in a multicultural team on an eye to eye level.

Kick-off-session of a virtual tandem-pilot
The German network of the ALF is organising a small pilot tandem format entitled „How‘s life in…?”.
The kick-off event took place virtually on 21st March 2023. This first session was designed to get to know each other and to find space and time for the next meetings in the small groups.
The objective is to bring members from the German network together with other engaged citizens from ALF countries.
The idea is to transfer the classic concept of „penpals“ to the virtual space. Two (or sometimes three) people were matched and will have some one-to-one-meetings online in a relaxed atmosphere.
They can cook together, can take the partner to an art exhibition via smart phone, exchange recommendations or „coups de coeurs“ for movies or literature, work together on a climate change project, make music together, exchange about family and everyday life, read texts together.
During this first pilot phase the coordinators are working with a small group of members who are curious, who want to try something new and who want to share their experiences afterwards so that the program can be developed further.
After the initial online-event on 21st march, the duos or trios will have 3 meetings of 30 minutes and afterwards share their experiences in a final online-event.
