Mission and Objectives

Kubus is the acronym for "Kultur und Begegnung für Menschen in unterschiedlichen Situtaionen" (=culture and encounter for people in different situations). Kubus e.V. has the task to bring together people with different social and life circumstances and to work in the field of diversity.

Main Projects / Activities

In order to fullfill this task, we develop and implement projects for and with people with special needs, migrants, young people and artists. Lots of our projects are implemented by using theatre-pedagogic approaches.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

Kubus e.V. is implementing projects together with a large number of different partners. So we do have good network contacts to other non-governmental institutions, important persons of public life, local politics and economy which could also contribute to the network. Furthermore the results of our work and the gained experiences could be disseminated among the network.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

We want to be part of the network in order to enrich our activities by working with international partners. It would be great to be able to have an exchange with other international network partners that are active in similar fields as we are. Maybe we could generate synergetic effects by working together with new partners. It would also be interesting to hear about other potential fields of activity with which we could complement our own work. The concrete reason for us to apply for a membership was our current work with the Youth Federation Stuttgart in the project "Youth Migration Council" which handles the effects of the Arab Spring on migrational behaviour of young people from Northern Africa and Arabia on the European societies. For this project we are searching (international) partners.

General Information

WHO WE ARE: KulturLife is a non-profit organization for intercultural exchange, founded in 1995, with headquarters in Kiel, Germany. Number of staff: 17 Annual budget: 2,5 mio Euro Funding from: European Union, participant fees, ministry of economic cooperation KulturLife is at present in a restructuring phase, looking for a way to shift ownership from the present owner, Martin Elbeshausen, to a new form of steward ownership, such as a foundation. Apart from our various youth exchange activities with about 1,000 participants per year, we are very active in different projects to promote international understanding and intercultural dialogue and competence development.

Mission and Objectives

WHAT WE WANT: We are committed to a peaceful and just coexistence in a globalized world. Intercultural encounters for young people and adults of different cultures offer the opportunity to learn from each other and to overcome inner borders. We are convinced that the gained understanding for other ways of life and views will increase international understanding, international cooperation and respect for each other. HOW WE DO IT: We work closely with our participants, partner organisations and volunteers and can look back on over 25 years of experience. Good preparation, personal support, competent contact persons and trustful cooperation are very important to us in our mutual dealings. Within our team we also cultivate a respectful interaction and stand for sustainability and social participation. As a small team we pursue our goals with experience, courage and conviction. We share a vision, team spirit and the love of diversity and intercultural experiences.

Main Projects / Activities

WHAT WE DO: With our diverse international programs High School, Homestay, Work & Travel, Internships and Volunteer Services, we open doors for our participants to international encounters and lifelong learning experiences. Intensive preparation and experienced support provide the framework for this. Through our international project work, we are also committed to making a wide range of educational opportunities accessible to different target groups and to promoting inclusion.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

We have ample experience in training courses for young people in the field of intercultural competences and would like to develop those further with international partners. We are also always looking for new partners in our exchange network.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

I only just heard of the foundation, as I was preparing a project on the inclusion of intercultural learning in international youth work. I found the work of ALF very interesting and very close to our own activities.
