We, the “Initiative der Jungen Europäischen Föderalist:innen Berlin-Brandenburg an der Europa-Universität Viadrina” (Initiative of Young European Federalists Berlin-Brandenburg at the European University Viadrina) (JEF Viadrina), are an independent, non-partisan and non-denominational association that works to promote understanding between the peoples of Europe on a federal, liberal, constitutional and democratic basis. We founded ourselves in the European double city of Frankfurt Oder – Słubice in order to actively support the idea of creating a European federation with a European constitution. We are the youth association of Europa-Union Germany and, in a federalist manner, embedded in the state association of JEF Berlin-Brandenburg, the federal association of JEF Germany and the European umbrella organization of JEF Europe . We are therefore working together on various levels across Europe to implement the European idea. Website |

In the winter of 2005, the Unicef University Group formed in response to the catastrophic tsunami. Since our founding, we work to collect donations and to make the public aware of children‘s' problems, and we work closely with the Frankfurt (Oder) Unicef chapter. By means of a benefit concert, athletic events and projects in local schools, we successfully collected funds for Roma children in S.E. Europe; our most well-known project is most definitely the run/walk for charity, which was recently held on the island of Ziegenwerder for this cause. Our primary task is the formation and implementation of charitable donation campaigns. We look forward to working with interested individuals. Here is our contact information: |

ViaFrankfurt is actively involved as a university group at the European University Viadrina. Our work focuses on the politically occupied committees at the university, such as the student parliament. Here we stand up for a strong political center and actively fight against extreme right-wing as well as extreme left-wing positions. We see the key to a lively and diverse university in the many initiatives at the university. These are the heart of our Viadrina and their support is an essential concern for us. ViaFrankfurt is therefore the real representation of the initiatives in the political bodies. Furthermore, we would like to actively improve Frankfurt's location factor and see the university as a central point for this. email: viafrankfurthg@gmail.com |
