Hajusom 2013

“For me, Hajusom means family and love.” (Farsad, Afghanistan)
The nationally renowned theater project for transnational art “Hajusom” enables young people to present their stories and fates on large theater stages. The association “Hajusom e.V.” is an aid organization with mainly underage migrants from West Africa, Iran and Afghanistan.
The young people have come to Germany without family members, have experienced hardships and are faced with a lack of support and orientation in a foreign Germany. We also support the creative work of the association by helping young people to build a new life in Germany. Through our mentoring program, we support young people in everyday life, with administrative tasks and with tutoring. The diversity of ethnicities among the “Visions for Children e.V.” members, enables communication at eye level. In this way, we create trust and build a relationship with the young people.
