Since its foundation in 1984, the integration of children and young people from immigrant families has been a central area of interest. We associate three intentions with the term integration: Firstly, we would like to design our projects in such a way that the families as a whole are assisted and that, in particular, the parents become active and participate over an extended period of time. The aim is to help children and young people with an immigrant background completely develop their potential in the course of their education. Secondly, our projects work towards systematically including the special qualifications of immigrants at school, jobs, in the community and media, so that the strengths of a culturally heterogeneous society become more visible and usable. And, thirdly, we aim to strengthen the integrative power of communities and local civil society through model projects in city districts, so that children and young people from immigrant families will experience a sense of belonging, recognition and hope for the future at their places of learning and living.
