The Volunteer in Germany organizes several types of social, educational, and community activities. These activities are aimed at engaging international interns with locals and refugees who reside in Germany. In addition, we aim to spread cultural diversity in the city of Halle through our international guests participating in the center’s programs.
Sport activities
The Volunteer in Germany organizes several sports activities that bring together internationals, refugees, and locals. These activities are intended to provide an entertainment component to the educational process and exposure to alternative experiences alongside the typical classroom environment.
Local visits
The center coordinates local visits throughout the city of Halle. The purpose of these excursions is to discover the historical sites and expose travelers to the rich history of the city. Halle has an elegant city center, many green areas, and narrow streets with historic architecture. There are many beautiful places along the Saale River, which runs through the city.
Conversational sessions
Conversation sessions are one of the most important social activities that the center organizes to raise the level of our participants’ language skills through the introduction of various socio-cultural topics. This activity enables Volunteer in Germany participants to get to know residents as well as refugees in the city by gathering together for discussion.
Workshops

The international participants have the chance to help others improve their skills and gain additional teaching experience by instructing these courses.
Children’s Camps

English Club
The English Language Club is one of the most important free social activities that we organize to support those wishing to learn English. The Club aims to reach local community members and connect native English speakers to students through local schools and similar organizations.
English Club strives to give students opportunities to apply the skills they have learned in conversations with proficient English speakers. These kinds of activities help the students to enhance their self-confidence in speaking by interacting and asking questions.
