Starkmacher e.V.

About us

Starkmacher (est. 2006) is a non-profit, civil society organisation mainly active at grass roots level. The overall mission is to strengthen and empower citizens, particularly young people & children to react positively to the lack of orientation, frustration, absence of values and growing violence. Main areas of activities are youth work, non-formal education and intercultural learning within diverse social and ethnic settings as well as violence prevention and promotion of fundamental rights, citizenship and equality. Starkmacher has also sound experience in empowerment of youngsters with the help of creativity as well as sports & games. Over the last years, social and labour market integration of deprived youth, mainly from urban areas has become a key sector of activities. Target groups include most disadvantaged groups, such as young unemployed, school drop outs, juvenile delinquents and prison inmates.
