Nonprofit Organization Management - Berlin, Berlin, Germany
The Kreisau-Initiative was founded in summer 1989 by citizens of East and West Berlin in order to support the set-up and maintenance of an international youth meeting centre in Krzyżowa, Poland.In 1942/43 a German resistance group called Kreisau Circle worked in Kreisau/Krzyżowa on peace plans for the future of Europe after the World Word II. The Kreisau-Initiative aims at initiating activities based on the heritage of the Kreisau Circle, that facilitate peaceful co-existence of nations and social groups in Europe. In 1993, the International Youth Meeting Center was established in Krzyżowa. Since then, in conjunction with the Krzyżowa Foundation for European Understanding, we have been organising workshops, trainings and meetings for different target groups. Our projects are international with participants coming from all over the world, belonging to different generations and having different educational and social backgrounds. Moral courage, social and political engagement, commitment to democracy and human rights are the main focus of our work. Thematically, our projects fall into the fields of contemporary history and human rights, inclusive education, sustainability and intergenerational dialogue.And Krzyżowa today? Every year it welcomes up to 10,000 people who not only come from different countries of the world, but differ in age, fame and many other characteristics. They get to know each other, discuss, and argue.
